SC1600 - Glass Filled PTFE

SC1600 is a glass-filled PTFE sheet developed to serve as a reliable alternative to asbestos and standard PTFE materials. Crafted for demanding industrial environments, it offers enhanced safety and performance where chemical resistance and durability are essential. This material is engineered to withstand aggressive chemicals, fluctuating temperatures, and pressure variations.

Designed for sealing applications, SC1600 delivers excellent compressibility and sealability, functioning effectively even under low bolt loads to simplify installation and minimise leakage risks. Its non-flammable nature and compliance with FDA standards make it suitable for regulated environments.
