Versatile and easy-to-install, this 100% ePTFE sealing cord is a cost-effective solution for large steel flanges in general-use applications.
Guide to verify that the application meets GORE® Gasketing qualifications, and to narrow the selection of products.
GORE Joint Sealant, the first form-in-place gasket material, was invented by Gore more than 50 years ago. Since then, this high-temp rope gasket material has proven successful in sealing steel flanges with large diameters, rectangular or irregular shapes, and rough or pitted surfaces.
When compressed, this soft, conformable cord forms a thin yet strong seal. This high-temp rope gasket material is also a chemical-resistant joint sealant that will withstand challenging process conditions and aggressive process media. It can also seal applications where available bolt loads are low, or in applications that demand a gas-tight sealant.
GORE Joint Sealant is a versatile general assembly sealant for many Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO) teams because it seals reliably — and because this form-in-place seal is easy and cost-effective to install. For most applications, just peel off the adhesive backing, apply to the surface, and overlap the ends. (For more complex applications, see our installation instructions.)
Of all the joint sealant types, this durable industrial sealant is surely one of the easiest and most versatile solutions for a wide variety of gasketing applications.
