first 100%expandedPTFE in a true 60" x 60" for-
mat. This material is manufacturedby our propri-
etary isotropic-expansion processwhichbreaksall
the rules traditional to gasketmaterial manufactur-
ing of the past. 9Sotropic-expansion providesa highly fibrillat-
edmicrostructurewith nearlyequal tensile strengthin everydirec-
tion. This unique structuremaximizes performancepredictability
and stability while minimizing creep and cold flow. INERTEX
SQ-S definitly is an all-purpose gasket sheet that is setting the
new standardin gaskettechnology.
INERTEX SQ-Shas an unlimited shelf life and will not become
brittle, age,or otherwisedeterioratein the application. This mate-
rial is unaffected by UV, ozone,and corona. It is easily hand or
die cut. And, when necessary,INERTEXSQ-S can be removed
easily from flange surfaces due to the non-sticking nature of
PTFE.
QUALITYASSURANCE
INERTEXSQ-Sis manufacturedin our ISO 9002certified facili-
ty (Certification #94/4207). To assure receiving INERTEXSQ-S
in the best condition eachand every time, all sheetsare individu-
ally rolled onto a papertube and shrink-wrappedbeforebeing put
into a blister sleeveand sturdybox.
ONE COLOR
ONE CHOICE
INERTEX SQ-S is made of 100%virgin PTFE. Our isotropic-
expansion process completely eliminates the need for binders,
fillers, or pigments. This material is engineeredto replace all
filled PTFE gasketsheetmaterials in various colors suchas fawn,
blue, off-white, green,or orange. It will eliminate the possibility
of misuseof these different colored gasketmaterials. Plus, gas-
keting inventories will be greatly reduced with INERTEX SQ-S,
the one,all-encompassinggasketmaterial.
PURE ...INTEGRAL
INERTEXSQ-S is so pure that it far exceedsthe requirementsset
forth in the rigid SEMASPEC92010934B-STDaccordingto test-
ing performed by a SEMATECH recognized laboratory. And,
since it doesnot particulate, INERTEXSQ-Sis the choice for han-
dling ultra-pure fluids suchasultra-pure water,bio-tech,andphar-
maceuticals.
SOFJ:
BUTSTRONG
INERTEXSQ-S is very soft and extremelycompressiblewith rel-
atively light torque. It can be applied in FRP,porcelain, plastic,
and glass-linedpiping or vessels. Yet, this material is very strong
andtough. It canwithstand compressiveloadsof over40,000 psi
without affecting its sealingcapability. INERTEXSQ-Sis virtual-
ly impossible to abuse.
THETIGHTEST
According to the testing done by Ecole PolytechniqueTightness
Testing ResearchLaboratory (TTRL), INERTEXSQ-S is one of
the tightest sealing gasketmaterials in theworld. It can helpmeet
the most strict regulations of the Clean Air Act. Coupled with
excellent chemical compatibility with all VOC's, RAP's, and
RON's, INERTEX SQ-S becomesthe ultimate resolution to the
EPAissue.
