hygienic seal

Introducing a technologically advanced new hygienic seal, TUF-FLEX?. This revolutionary new seal from Rubber Fab Technologies Group is the worlds only unitized seal, setting new standards for purity, performance and flexibility. Designed to meet critical requirements in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, ultrapure water. WFI (water-for-injection) WFI (water-for-injection) and difficult food and beverage processing, Tuf-Flex outperforms other hygienic seals while eliminating costly process interruptions.
Performance Based on a Revolutionary Composition
A Tuf-Flex hygienic seals contact surface is a layer of PTFE grafted to an EPDM rubber inner core. This totally bonded construction provides an exceptionally pure and incredibly flexible seal. By grafting the elastomer with a layer of PTFE, Tuf-Flex will behave like an elastomer but will prevent the product contamination, service interruptions and clean-up costs associated with elastomer seals.
Performance With Exceptional Purity
Because its elastomer core is protected by a unitized layer of PTFE, Tuf-Flex hygienic seals will not release elastomer extractables or particulates totally eliminating spalling. The result is an exceptionally maintained sanitary tubing I.D. with no I.D. invasiveness or system contamination.
