Preformed Gaskets

PA) has expanded its family of GORE® SKYFLEX® Aerospace Materials to include preformed gaskets for multi-face aircraft applications such as hole liners, flange joints, fastener seals, and galley or restroom hard-mounts. These lightweight, non-hazardous gaskets ensure continuous protection between flat interfaces, around chamfers, and inside a component’s mounting hole. By isolating dissimilar materials completely, these new gaskets significantly reduce the likelihood of galvanic corrosion, thereby increasing the life of the component.

Preformed gaskets for multi-face aircraft applications.
Unlike other aircraft sealants, GORE® SKYFLEX® Aerospace Materials do not require any curing time, which reduces downtime and facilitates replacement during component maintenance. The unique properties of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) — the key component in the gasket’s construction — enable them to last longer without hardening or becoming brittle. As a chemically inert, thermally stable material, ePTFE withstands the harsh conditions encountered in the aerospace environment. Available in diameters from 3 to 150 millimeters, these new gaskets are formed to each customer’s dimensions, and they are easy to install without any special equipment or facilities needed
