GORE Series 500 Gasket Tape is engineered to deliver at least 50% greater creep resistance than other ePTFE gasket tapes.

GORE Series 500 Gasket Tape is engineered to deliver at least 50% greater creep resistance than other ePTFE gasket tapes. GORE Series 500 Gasket Tape fits any shape instantly – solving a variety of challenges posed by large gaskets.  It eliminates the time needed for a large custom gasket to be fabricated off-site. Further, while some applications like mixing shafts or heat exchanger tube bundles require full disassembly to insert a conventional gasket, GORE Series 500 Gasket Tape installs in minutes. And while vertical flanges create installation challenges for traditional gaskets, GORE Series 500 Gasket Tape adheres readily.

GORE Series 500 Gasket Tape also decreases demands on engineering, as one gasket technology can be leveraged across numerous large flange applications. In addition, it is much tighter than conventional one-piece gasket solutions, which lowers emissions, ensuring that systems run trouble-free.
