In Developing TEFOMTM our objective was to provide the chemical Industry in
particular, with a universally applicable Gasket material offering substantially
better characteristics than coventional gasket material. In order to cover the
range of possible applications TEFOMTM
sheets and rings dark grey in colour was
developed.
Product performance and technical data have been determined
and checked in numerous test series. Our tests were carried out under diffcult
conditions of pressure and temperature variation over peorods of several weeks.
The extremely low leakage figures should be assessed against this background.
TEFOMTM
is a modified PTFE which is supplied in flat from which seals can be
punched or cut in ring form or

In addition to the standard applications - TEFOMTM is particulary suitable where sensitive flange materials, such as glass or ceramic,
and could be damaged by other excessively hard seal materials.
-
TEFOMTM is extermely resistant to various media and is insensitive to
frequent load alternation. It is adaptable over the whole temperature range
between - 3500C and +2600C. It can deal reliably with pressure upto 40 bar.
-
TEFOMTM has been use with gaseous oxygen at pressure upto 40 bar and at
temperatures upto 2250C.
