P.T.F.E. specialists for Parts, Sheet, Gaskets, Bar and Rod

   PTFE resin or PTFE Sheet - Virgin, Mechanical and Expanded grades

The perfect material for Food (FDA) applications. Chemical Compatibility 0-14 PH Good for Temperatures to 450F

Ameri-lon a new family of products using a new hybrid material, Ameri-lon is the result of years of experience in producing PTFE materials.  It is designed for a wide range of demanding industrial requirements including gasket and bearing applications.  Ameri-lon is filled PTFE, uniquely combining the properties of PTFE and Kevlar materials.  Kevlar enhances the physical properties of PTFE and results in a superior gasket material.  Ameri-lon shows less cold flow and greater sealing ability than other filled PTFE materials (PTFE) or Fluorocarbons.  It maintains the chemical attack resistance and the temperature range of PTFE.

Machined or molded PTFE parts 

From Virgin or Mechanical Grade for v-packings, mechanical seal wedges or a 1000 other applications.
We can  make parts made from samples or prints.
PTFE® sheet, rod and bar are kept in stock for immediate shipment

PTFE Joint Sealant

Expanded PTFE Joint Sealant is ideal for a wide range of applications. It is   soft and pliable yet tough. Seals rough and irregular surfaces. Resists chemicals in The 0-14 pH range and will not deteriorate with age. Ideal for temperatures from -450 F to 600F in flange applications. Often used to form an instant flange or door gasket. Seals of up to 3000+ psi can be achieved depending on the flange type/design and the media being sealed. An adhesive strip on the back simplifies installation, especially on large heat exchangers or vertical flanges.*

Valve stem packing  

Soft expanded PTFE, easy to install, chemically inert, will not age, FDA suitable, adds service life to old worn valves by conforming to pitted or worn surfaces.  Also available in the original virgin PTFE® version.

Insertable PTFE resin Gaskets
Seal troublesome, corroded, pitted & steam-drawn flanges with these preformed gaskets.   100% P.T.F.E. preformed gaskets easily drop into your flange and seal it.  They are just as easy to remove after use.  Made to fit standard ANSI 150, 300, 400 and 600 lb. flanges in 1/2 through 12" sizes

PTFE resin or PTFE Cut Gaskets / TASK-LINE® Gaskets

  Virgin*     Mechanical Grade*      Expanded PTFE*
Gaskets cut from Virgin or mechanical grade material,  posses all of the great aspects of PTFE® resin (or PTFE resin) like chemical compatibility and a 450-500F temperature range, but require torque to seal.  If that torque is not possible or if flange faces are worn or pitted, Expanded PTFE , gaskets are the answer.

We provide Virgin and filled PTFE Rod, Tube and Bar stock.  Both in molded and extruded versions.

At American Seal & Packing we extrude a large range of standard size PTFE rod from 3/32" diameter to 5" diameter. We also have the capability to center-less grind intermediate sizes up to 2" diameter. Many of our sizes can be supplied in Virgin PTFE or with fills of glass, bronze, brass, carbon, graphite,  Moly and a large range of colors.

PTFE resin or PTFE Bellows Expansion joints

Allow your chemical system to flex when it has to. Using PTFE  resin or PTFE expansion joints saves wear on your system and protects from pipe strain. Ideal when you have to deal with chemicals.
