Flangiflon is an expanded PTFE gasket produced by uniaxial extrusion. This orientation gives the PTFE fiber structure excellent longitudinal stability during extrusion. Compressing Flangiflon results in a change in thickness and a diffusion of the product, ensuring an excellent seal. Flangiflon is supplied with double-sided tape for easy positioning on sealing surfaces and subsequent assembly.
Flangiflon is produced in various cross-sections, thicknesses, and lengths and wound on reels. Installing Flangiflon begins with selecting the correct cross-section. The sealing surface must then be cleaned and the protective paper removed from the double-sided tape. The two ends of the Flangiflon must then be overlapped and cut approximately 2 cm from the joint. The sealing surfaces are then sealed by tightening the bolts or screws symmetrically. Even in the case of severe damage to the sealing surface, a hermetic seal can be ensured by applying an additional layer over the damaged or damaged area. To prevent flange deterioration (as can happen with thin flanges), a "snake" application of the tape is recommended. This application method is also recommended for fragile flanges, such as those made of glass, ceramic, or plastic.

Flangiflon finds universal use as:

• pump gaskets
• transmission gaskets
• compressor gaskets
• sealing gaskets for containers
• gaskets for manhole opening and in general where there is a need for a gasket for static sealing and where there are parameters for the use of PTFE
