| Material | 100% expanded PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), with multidirectional strength This product is supplied with an adhesive backer only to aide in the product installation |
|---|---|
| Chemical Resistance | Chemical resistance to all media pH 0-14, except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine. Chemical resistance to all media pH 0-14, except molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine. |
| Operating Range | The maximum applicable pressure and temperature depend mainly on the equipment and installation.
Be aware that flange surface irregularities may cause high peak loads. Please contact De Dietrich if further guidance is required. For applications outside the typical use range, Gore recommends an application specific engineering design calculation and extra care during installation. |
| Shelf Life | ePTFE is not subject to aging and can be stored indefinitely. To ensure optimal adhesive function, we recommend use within two years of date of purchase when stored under normal(2) conditions |

GORE Gasket Tape Series 1000 is available in multiple width, thickness, and spool length combinations.
| Width | Width | Thickness | Thickness | Length | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 40 mm | 1.5" | 6 mm | 1/4" | 5 m | 16' |
| 55 mm | 2" | 9 mm | 3/8" | 10 m | 32' |
| 65 mm | 2.5" | 15 m | 49' |
All combinations of width, thickness, and length are available. Manufactured to metric dimensions.
Shim tape only available in above widths, 3 mm (1/8") thickness and 5 m (16') length.
Choose tape width to be the same or wider than the width of the flange. Use 6 mm (1/4") tape thickness for deviations up to 1.5 mm (0.060"), respectively 9 mm (3/8") tape thickness for deviations up to 2.3 mm (0.090") without shimming. For greater deviations, consider shimming with GORE Series 1000 shim tape.
