The GORE® GR sheet gasket is designed for durable and reliable
sealing of all standard steel flange connections and equipment
flanges. The sheet is made of pure, high-quality expanded PTFE
(ePTFE), giving the gasket virtually unlimited chemical resistance.
The GORE® GR sheet gasket is characterized by minimal loss of
surface pressure (high PQR value according to EN 13555). This is
especially important in cases of stress due to temperature
fluctuations, high temperatures, and external influences during
operation, which could lead to leaks and/or blowouts.
The high tensile strength of the material results in greater pressure
resistance and blowout safety. The increased stiffness of the material
ensures easier installation of the gasket. The GORE® GR sheet
gasket provides a secure and durable seal for both standard and nonstandard sizes of steel flanges.
Both the maximum allowable pressure and the maximum safe operating temperature depend primarily on the equipment. Standard pressures range from full vacuum to 40 bar.
