Product Description
Garlock GYLON EPIX® - Brochure
GYLON EPIX® Style 3510 is a high performance, barium sulfate filled PTFE gasketing material. GYLON EPIX® Style 3510 is designed for use where initiating and maintaining an extremely tight seal is critical; these applications include: strong caustics and moderate acids, chlorine, gases, water, steam, hydrocarbons and cryogenics.
GYLON EPIX® will provide superior functional performance by combining the traditional attributes of GYLON® with an innovative surface design. It offers a broader range of applications than traditional PTFE gaskets that are used in worn and pitted flanges. In addition, GYLON EPIX® delivers the tight sealing and load retention properties of 1/16” (1.6mm) and the conformability of 1/8” (3.2mm). The hexagonal profile provides improved compressibility and recovery. The profiled surface reduces the contact area during initial compression to concentrate the compressive force of the flange for improved sealability.
Certification(s): FDA Compliant, REACH Compliant, RoHS Compliant, USP VI 87 Compliant, USP VI 88 Compliant, ADI/TSE Free
