monoFlon® Gasket Tape Style HD
High Density ePTFE Gasket Tape
Universal ePTFE gasket tape with high density, TÜV tested, FDA compliant
monoFlon® Style HD – Gasket Tape consists of pure, monodirectionally expanded PTFE (ePTFE) and is supplied by the metre on spools.
For easy installation, the seal is equipped with a self-adhesive backing and can thus also be easily mounted on vertical sealing surfaces.
Due to the special expansion process, the material has a uniformly high density. Together with the special width/height ratio, this enables reliable sealing in a wide variety of applications, even with large unevenness and roughness.
The densely packed fibre structure of the Style HD gasket tapes results in improved cross-sectional tightness compared to conventional ePTFE tapes.
