PTFE-Encapsulated Silicone is specified here for non-contaminating, non-stick sealing surface and chemical inertness of PTFE with the wide temperature range of silicone. It resists steam, nearly all process chemicals, and wide temperature swings. The material carries a published service range of -75°F (-59.4°C) to 400°F (204.4°C).

Typical settings include chemical processing, cryogenic and high-temperature equipment, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.

TES70232 ships individually. Nominal inside diameter is listed as 2 3/4 inch. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
