DURLON®
9000/9000N
Inorganic Filler with Pure PTFE Resins
FILLED PTFE GASKET MATERIAL
ASTM F104: F452111-A9B5E11K6M6 |
|
 |
APPLICATION:
DURLON®
9000/9000N is used extensively in chemical, pulp and paper, food
and beverage and the railroad tankcar industries.
It has been tested and approved for liquid chlorine, caustics,
liquid oxygen, and high purity applications in the pharmaceutical
industry (9000N, blood components
manufacturing). DURLON® 9000
and 9000N are designed for
applications where resistance to
highly aggressive chemicals is required. Available in unpigmented white as style
9000N.
Both styles 9000 and 9000N, (including branding) conform to FDA requirements.
DURLON 9000 has been proven through the "Test Protocol" of
the Chlorine Institute and is listed as an
acceptable gasket material for Dry Chlorine
service (both liquid and gaseous) in
Pamphlet 95, Edition 3 of the Chlorine Institute.
Additionally, DURLON 9000 was
independently tested and approved for Caustics
service by a major chemical/chlorine manufacturer. Unlike generic glass fiber filled PTFE,
the shape of the fillers used in
DURLON 9000 do not allow wicking which can cause
corrosion on flange faces.
DURLON 9000/9000N has been
independently tested and certified
(BAM) for
Oxygen service at pressures up to 585 psi (40 bar) and temperatures up to 392°F (200ºC), and for
service in liquid oxygen. Gaskets for oxygen service can be supplied from distributor
stocks, providing proper cleaning procedures for oxygen service are followed before
installation.
COMPOSITION:
Various shapes of inorganic fillers have been homogeneously blended with pure PTFE resins to give
DURLON® 9000 its physical and mechanical properties. It is
suitable for use in steel flanges and will not exhibit the cold flow problems associated
with virgin PTFE or the hardness problems of some other filled PTFE products. It cuts
easily and separates cleanly from flanges after use.

Warning:
Durlon gasket materials should never be recommended when both the
temperature and the pressure are at the maximums listed. Properties
and applications shown are typical. No application should be
undertaken by anyone without independent study and evaluation for
suitability. Never use more than one gasket in one flange joint, and never
reuse a gasket. Improper use or gasket selection could cause property
damage and/or serious personal injury. The data reported is a
compilation of field testing, field service reports and/or in-house testing.
While the utmost care has gone into publishing the information contained
herein, we assume no responsibility for errors. The information and
specifications contained in this website are subject to change without
notice. This revision cancels and obsoletes all previous editions. |
