Tetracord Joint Sealant
A proven market leader, SEPCO Tetracord gasketing material is made from 100% pure PTFE and can be used in virtually any gasketing application, including domes, transmission cases, towers, solar heaters, flanges, tanks, reactor vessels, digesters, manways, evaporators, columns, glass joints, ducts, drum lids, pump cases, heat exchangers, points, portholes, sight glasses, and compressor housings.
Ease of use
Tetracord, which has an adhesive backing for easy installation, is soft and flexible so it handles curves and contours. It is sold in continuous cord form so you only cut off what you need each time. Installation takes only minutes, and removal of the sealant is simple and involves no scraping, which saves downtime and money.
Strong and Durable
The strong, durable PTFE material has excellent chemical resistance to many acids, alkalis, salts and organic chemicals. It is also asbestos-free, non-toxic and non-contaminating, so it is a good sealant choice for food, pharmaceuticals, and diagnostics applications. Tetracord is also recommended for heavy duty applications such as high pressure steam turbine housings and fragile glass joints.
