Excellent Thermal Insulation PTFE Gasket With FDA And AMS
PTFE has excellent dielectric properties and provides excellent thermal insulation properties, and the operating temperature range is -400°F to 500°F. PTFE is the most chemically resistant plastic known and is not affected by most corrosive liquids, vapours and gases. PTFE is usually offered in thicknesses ranging from .002″ to .250″ and meets FDA and AMS specifications, making it acceptable for the medical and food production industries.
In a strong chemical environment, contamination of the medium is not allowed, and the use of standard gaskets is very complicated. Here PTFE gasket is used as a flange gasket connection. For example, in the (petro) chemical industry, in the process industry. The PTFE gasket is also very suitable for applications in the food industry. PTFE is physiologically inactive and can be used in direct contact with food.
We supplies high-quality PTFE gaskets, including expanded PTFE gasket, modified PTFE gasket, PTFE bonded EPDM gasket, pure PTFE gasket.
Medical PTFE gaskets serve as sealing elements in various medical devices, equipment, and systems, providing reliable and leak-free connections. Here are some key features and characteristics of Medical PTFE gaskets:
Biocompatibility: Medical-grade PTFE is specifically formulated to meet strict biocompatibility standards, ensuring that the gasket is safe for use in medical applications. This enables its compatibility with the human body and minimizes the risk of adverse reactions or contamination.
Chemical Resistance: PTFE gaskets exhibit excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, bases, solvents, and corrosive substances. This resistance ensures the gasket's stability and integrity when exposed to various medical fluids and cleaning agents.
High-Temperature Resistance: PTFE has exceptional thermal stability and can withstand high temperatures without degrading or losing its sealing properties. This makes Medical PTFE gaskets suitable for applications that involve sterilization processes, autoclaving, or exposure to elevated temperatures.
Low Friction Coefficient: PTFE has a low coefficient of friction, which allows for smooth assembly and disassembly of medical components without damaging or scratching surfaces. This property helps in reducing wear, extending the lifespan of the gasket, and facilitating ease of use.
Excellent Sealing Performance: Medical PTFE gaskets provide reliable sealing against leaks, preventing the passage of fluids or gases between mating surfaces. Their exceptional conformability allows them to conform to irregular surfaces, ensuring a tight and secure seal.
Sterilization Compatibility: Medical PTFE gaskets can withstand common sterilization methods used in healthcare facilities, including steam sterilization, ethylene oxide (EtO) sterilization, and gamma sterilization. This compatibility ensures the gasket's sterility and suitability for use in sterile medical environments.
Customizable Design: PTFE gaskets can be manufactured in various shapes, sizes, and configurations to meet specific application requirements. Customization options allow for precise fitting and integration within medical devices and systems.
Medical PTFE gaskets find applications in a wide range of medical equipment, including surgical instruments, diagnostic devices, laboratory equipment, fluid handling systems, and pharmaceutical manufacturing equipment. Their reliable sealing properties contribute to the overall performance, safety, and longevity of these medical devices and systems.
