Applications //
3R 810 SH is an all purpose gasket sheet that can replace all other types of PTFE sheets. It will seal all aggressive chemicals over the entire 0-14 pH range except for molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine. Made from 100% virgin PTFE, it not only resists chemical attack, but it will not contaminate or discolor end products. These industries currently use expanded PTFE sheet: -Distillers, pharmaceutical, iron and steel manufacturing, petrochemical, general chemical, pulp and paper, food and beverage, power generation and marine.
