KLINGER®top-chem 2000 soft

Best performance in applications with high mechanical requirements

KLINGER top-chem 2000 soft combines the best load bearing capacity with excellent compressibility. It consists of a unique matrix which creates a universal heavy duty gasket.

Basis

Porous PTFE filled with silicon carbide.

Areas of application

Superior chemical resistance in strongly acidic and alkaline applications. It shows exceptional performance in applications with high mechanical requirements at high temperatures. KLINGER top-chem 2000 soft has a high conformability and is ideal for maintaining a tight seal even at low surface loads.
