Sanitary PTFE EPDM Tef-Flex Unitized Tri-Clamp Gaskets

PTFE/EPDM Tef-Flex Unitized Tri-Clamp Gaskets are suitable for food and drug manufacturing applications due to their PTFE and EPDM composition, offering chemical resistance, high-temperature stability, and hygienic properties. However, the unitized design of PTFE/EPDM Tef-Flex gaskets provides additional benefits in terms of reliability and ease of use, making them a preferred choice for critical applications in the industry.

These gaskets have a unitized design, meaning that the PTFE and EPDM layers are bonded together into a single, integrated gasket. This design ensures that the gasket remains intact and maintains its shape during installation and removal, reducing the risk of damage or misalignment.
The unitized design provides a more reliable and consistent seal between process equipment, reducing the risk of leaks, contamination, and product loss.
The unitized construction simplifies installation, ensuring proper alignment and compression of the gasket during assembly.
