INTRODUCTION
The OCEAN flat strip for gaskets is made up of 100% pure PTFE material transformed into a fibrous molecular structure thanks to a particular process. The result is a product featuring a particular combination of properties:
• High plastic deformability with reduced cold creep; ideal even for solving complex sealing applications on any type of surface in a short time. In fact, the pressure applied transforms OCEAN into a thin tape filling all microcavities eventually available in the seats of seals. (See table.)
• It withstands all chemicals except for some fluorinated compounds and molten alkali metals.
• Does not contaminate the media with which it comes into contact; it does not release colour particles and is non- toxic.
• Our exclusive engineering service has allowed us to offer tailor-made solutions for customer specific applications, also providing the OCEAN flat strip in densities and sizes different from those in the catalogue.
• Making a seal from the OCEAN flat strip is an extremely simple task. The adhesive side of the strip has a protective band. To apply the strip it is sufficient to remove this protection and press the strip against the surface to be sealed. Then the two ends of the strip are joined one on the top of the other, or in alternative, cut diagonally and joined head-to-head if the tightening pressure is low.
Expanded PTFE - OCEAN
Gaskets in expanded PTFE suitable for all employments: -160°/230° C, 30 bar, ph 0-14. Sheets 1500x1500, TCK 1/2/3 mm, strip and flat gaskets.
