PTFE Gasket Material

This gasket material is made with 100% Virgin PTFE and uses Hollow Glass Micro-Spheres as the filler

This PTFE sheet is manufactured by a unique process that structures the composition into fibers that overcome creep relaxation and/or cold flow.  Cold flow is a problem associated with plain PTFE sheet
