The Inertex® family of gasket sheets are produced by a proprietary expansion process that generates a highly fibrillated microstructure with nearly equal tensile strength in every direction (ISOTROPIC.) This unique structure maximizes performance predictability and stability, while minimizing creep and cold flow. Whatever your application, Inertex® SQ-S Sheet Gasketing is setting the new standard in providing users with the tightest, most leak-free gasket possible.
Product Benefits:
- Strong and tough, capable of withstanding 40,000 PSI stress without affecting seal ability
- One of the tightest gasket materials in the world; an ultimate solution to the EPA issues
- Unlimited shelf time; no aging, and unaffected by UV, ozone, and corona
- Easily hand cut, die cut, and removable from flange surfaces after use
- Largest expanded PTFE sheets in the world (SQ-S “H”); suitable for large diameter flanges without segmenting and improving yield of gasket cutting
- Engineered to replace all filled PTFE sheets in various colors, reducing gasket inventories
- Far exceeding the requirements of SEMASPEC 92010934B-STD for semiconductor uses
- Excellent choice for handling ultra-pure water for biotech and pharmaceutical industries
- Soft and compressible, suitable for FRP, porcelain, plastic, and glass-lined piping vessels
The Inertex® family of gasketing and sealing products are produced by proprietary processes protected by both U.S. and world patents.
