The PTFE Tetracord can be used in virtually any gasketing application, including domes, transmissions cases, towers, solar heaters, flanges, tanks, reactor vessels, digesters, manways, evaporators, columns, glass joints, ducts, drum lids, pump, heat exchangers, points, portholes, sight glasses and compressor housings.
Tetracord is also recommended for heavy duty applications such as high pressure steam turbine housings and fragile glass joints.
