For running industrial operations, there are many components that play an important role. PTFE Gaskets are one
of those widely-used components across industries. PTFE or Polytetrafluoroethylene that is commonly known as  
TEFLON is used as a gasketing material by PTFE gasket manufacturers because of its physical and chemical  
properties. Modified PTFE gasket sheets are used as sealants for specific purposes too.
PTFE can be identified as a synthetic fluoropolymer that  
ensures low-friction and provides high corrosion resistance.  
Other key features of PTFE include high melting
temperature, high resilience and high surface wear.

5  Ways to use PTFE gaskets
1. Equipment in Petrochemical industry
PTFE gaskets are used in equipment handling chemicals and petrochemicals  
because they are resistant to corrosive fluids and extreme temperature  
extremes. Except for certain alkali metals and fluorine compounds, PTFE  
demonstrate resistance to most chemicals at various pressures and  
temperatures. Also, PTFE performs well in applications where  the  sealant  
comes in contact with hydraulic fluids.
2. Medical 
Instruments
PTFE is a material used in pharma and medical equipment industry. You can  
find them being miniature-sized PTFE sealants in components such as  
implantables, catheters, etc. PTFE can withstand  surface wear and tear that  
are likely to take place in processes involved in the manufacturing of drugs in  
pharma companies. Chemical and temperature resistance of PTFE ensures that  
the industry gets secure sealants for its specialised purposes.  Secure seals  
made using PTFE gasket sheet also prevent contamination of medicines and  
other mishaps during manufacturing.
3. PTFE in electrical 
components

4. Processing plants of food 
products
PTFE conforms to AMS and FDA standards for usage in the production units of  
food and medical products. The atomic structure of Teflon is  very strong  
wherein there’s a long chain of carbon atoms and each of these atoms are  
linked to two fluorine atoms. Therefore, it won’t bond with other items making it  
an ideal material for food processing plants. Temperature resistance and  
chemical resistance properties of PTFE gasket ensures that there’s no  
contamination of foods because of sealant material in the food production  
equipment.
