Envelope Gaskets are specialized composite gaskets where a soft filler (like rubber or compressed sheet) is enclosed inside a thin outer envelope of chemically resistant material like PTFE (Teflon®). This construction provides excellent chemical resistance on the outside and resilient sealing from the inner core, making them ideal for aggressive media, pharma, food, and chemical industries.
PTFE Outer Layer – Excellent chemical, thermal & non-stick properties
Soft Filler Core – Provides compressibility and sealing
Available in Split or Moulded Envelopes
Non-Contaminating – Suitable for sterile applications
FDA Compliant PTFE on request
Custom Sizes & Shapes Available
Slit Envelope: One side slit PTFE, common & cost-effective option
Moulded (Machined) Envelope: Seamless design for high integrity & hygiene
U-Type Envelope: PTFE wraps around filler in U-shape
CAF / Compressed Asbestos-Free: General-purpose use, good compressibility
EPDM / Neoprene / Nitrile Rubber: Food, pharma, oil-based media
Silicone Rubber: High-temp, hygienic, dairy, and pharma use
Viton® / FKM: Aggressive chemical environments
Standard sizes: DN15 to DN600
Custom outer/inner diameters available
Thickness: 3 mm to 5 mm standard (customizable)
Chemical Processing – Acid, alkali & solvent resistance
Pharmaceutical & Biotech – Contamination-free sealing
Food & Beverage – Safe for hygiene-critical equipment
Water Treatment Plants
Petrochemical & Gas Units
Q: Why use envelope gaskets over full PTFE gaskets?
A: Envelope gaskets combine PTFE's chemical resistance with the compressibility of rubber, giving better sealing under moderate bolt loads.
Q: Can envelope gaskets be reused?
A: Typically not recommended due to deformation of the inner filler, especially under high pressure.
Q: Are FDA-compliant PTFE materials available?
A: Yes! We provide FDA-grade envelope gaskets for food and pharma sectors.
Q: What’s the maximum temperature they can handle?
A: PTFE can withstand up to 260°C, though the inner filler material will define the overall temperature limit.
