Low Torque Gaskets

Low Torque EPDM Gaskets

Low Torque Teflon Gaskets

Low Torque Flange Gasket – The Full Port Flange Gasket

Excellent for Non Metallic Piping Systems… Reduce Flange Breakage

PVC, PP, CPVC, PVDF, FRP

Our Series LT , Low Torque Gaskets are Recommended for All Types of Non-Metal Piping Systems to Prevent Initial Flange Breakage due to Bolt Over-Tightening. The unique Double Convex raised O Ring Design provides excellent sealing with 75% less bolt torque required for flat face gaskets.

The PTFE gaskets have PTFE sheet material bonded directly to the EPDM core.

FEATURES:

  • Industry’s only Full Port double O-Ring design for ½ to 12” Sch 40 and Sch 80 PVC, CPVC Piping systems
  • Reduces Pressure Drop
  • Less Turbulence= Longer Lasting
  • Low Flange Bolt Torques Required for Positive Seal- Due to the Molded Raised Face-Patented double convex o-ring design
  • Ideal for Thermoplastic Piping Systems,also Metal or Plastic Lined metal Pipe Systems for up to 250 psi.
  • Excellent Chemical Resistance-PTFE-bonded gaskets are Suitable for Extremely Aggressive Chemical Services
  • Fully Molded
  • Ring Tab for storage or Positioning during installation.
