Unflanged Sanitary Tri-Clamp® Gaskets - Garlock GYLON® BIO-PRO®
Garlock GYLON BIO-PRO® Gaskets are an aseptic food grade Tri-Clamp® Gasket made from GYLON BIO-LOK, a PTFE material that provides exceptional sealing performance for all pharmaceutical and food processing applications and processes. It's restructured PTFE composition provides safe, durable, and consistent sealing performance in a range of challenging environments, including exposure to acids, caustics, sensitive media, low and high temperatures and pressures. GYLON BIO-PRO® Gaskets are dimensionally stable and resist intrusion.
By remaining flexible, tight, and flush with the pipe bore, even under high loads, GYLON BIO-LINE® gaskets further eliminate the potential for process material contamination caused by traditional elastomeric seals.
Storing GYLON® BIO-PRO® Gaskets:
- Store flat in a cool, dry area
- Do not fold or bend
- If exposed to greases, oils, or solvents in liquid or vapor form, clean before installing
- Store away from incidental exposure to all types of radiation
- Following extended storage, carefully inspect the material for damage
- If in doubt concerning any of the above provisions, consult the factory
- SHELF LIFE FOR GYLON® SHEET IS INDEFINITE, BASED ON IDEAL STORAGE CONDITIONS
