Vanétex EPTFE seal cord

Vanétex tape is a 100% EPTFE (Expanded PTFE) pure seal cord. The strict production process give the material its typical microporous, stretched fibre structure. This results in excellent compression, making the tape stick perfectly on every kind of surface. It has the added advantage that it will deform under pressure to fill rough and uneven surfaces. The microporous structure makes it also possible to separate gas from liquids.

Because of the chemical inertness of EPTFE, Vanétex tape can be used in a variety of applications in nearly all kinds of industry, even in the harshest of environments. It’s also applicable where only a limited flange load is available. By combining the tape with a manageable spool, it is very easy to cut Vanétex tape to the right size, shape and form on location.

Key properties:

  • Excellent chemical and corrosion resistance
  • Wide temperature range
  • Resistant to ageing
  • In all shapes and diameters
  • High flexibility
  • Oxygen resistance
  • Color: white
  • FDA approval

Applications:

  • Flanges
  • Pump housings
  • Vessel lids
  • Compressors
  • Hand- and manholes
  • Air ducts
  • Compensators
  • Heat exchangers
