Leader Clipperlon 2120

Description

Modified PTFE gasket material containing biaxial orientated chains to obtain a tight seal for demanding applications. Clipperlon 2120 is a very dense material with low compressibility, high recovery and low creep properties. Off-white in color and produced with Modified PTFE and barium sulfate filler. Clipperlon 2120 particularly suitable for use with hydrofluoric acid and chlorine applications and a wide variety of different media across the whole pH-range. Due to the high density this material is highly recommended for applications with monomers to avoid the ‘popcorning’ effect. This effect will be result when the monomer enters the micro-voids of the PTFE.

Available also for Heat Exchanger applications.
