Low
Torque Flange Gaskets for Plastic Piping Systems
Chemline
GA Series Low Torque Gaskets are recommended for all Plastic Piping
Systems to prevent initial flange leakage due to bolt over tightening.
They are especially recommended for all Chemline solid plastic
flanged body valves. The unique double convex ring design provides
optimum sealing with a fraction of the bolt torque required for
flat face gaskets. The Teflon® PTFE and PVDF gaskets have 0.4
mm sheet material bonded to EPDM. This increases elasticity, lowering
bolt torques required to seal.
