KWO® MultiTex® Tape

ePTFE gasket tape

 

KWO® MultiTex® Tape is a high-quality gasket material produced from multidirectionally expanded PTFE.

The flexible material adapts well to sealing surfaces, compensates irregularities and seals at very low stresses.

Form in place PTFE gasket tape, especially used on large and irregularly shaped steel flanges or glass lined steel flanges.
