Gore UPG

The UPG is one of the most widely recognized and patented designs for a flange gasket. Made from expanded Teflon the UPG has a pressed ID of reduced thickness which mitigates creep of the material into process.

Gasketwholesale is your best online source for GORE® GR Universal Pipe Gaskets (Style 800) These gaskets provide a reliable seal for steel, glass-lined steel and fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) flanges, in the full spectrum of strong acid, alkali, and solvent process media, including the most challenging thermal cycling and elevated temperature applications. This single gasket solution can reduce the process safety and production downtime risks caused by the use of an incorrect gasket material. Highly conformable 100% ePTFE reliably seals irregular surfaces.
