Tuf-Steel Sanitary Tri-Clamp Gasket - 6"

Description

Rubber Fab's Tuf-Steel Sanitary Tri-Clamp Gaskets are the material of choice when purity, long service life, performance, chemical resistance, and heat resistance are required. Tuf-Steel Gaskets are 100% leak free when torqued correctly, and will experience minimum creep and cold flow. The Tuf-Steel material is a unique proprietary blend of non-pigmented PTFE (Teflon) and 316L Stainless Steel that has been water atomized and passivated. The end result is a Tuf-Steel Gasket that is non-stick, features no pigmentation, and has ultra-low absorption rates. These Tri-Clamp Gaskets can maintain seal integrity under large temperature fluctuations with a serviceable temperature range from -350°F to 550°F. We recommend the use of the Torque-Rite Clamp to get the most out of these gaskets.Storing Tuf-Steel Gaskets:- Shelf Life: 20 Years from cure date- Store in original packaging in clean and dry warehouse- Do not expose to direct sunlight- Keep more than 6' away from electric motors- Maintain temperature between 65°F and 85°FTuf-Steel Standards Compliance:- FDA CFR 21, 177.1550- U.S. Pharmacopeia Class VI Certification- USDA Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points- Cytotoxicity Criteria- USDA and 3-A Sanitary Standards- ASME-BPE Standards for Type I and Type II- ADI Free (Animal Derived Ingredient Free)- Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP)Tuf-Steel Tri-Clamp Gasket Features:- Color Code: No Dot- -350°F to 550°F Temperature Range- Proprietary blend of PTFE and 316L (water atomized and passivated)- Maintains seal with wide temperature variations- Metal Detectable- Extended service life- Great for SIP and WFI application- Minimal cold flow and creep- 500 CIP/SIP cycles guaranteed- Excellent expansion/contraction stability- Minimal thermal expansion
