When PTFE* was developed in 1938, the importance of the material to industrial sealing was quickly recognized because of the tremendous chemical resistance characteristics. Skive marks made initial sealing difficult, cold flow caused leakage and premature failure, these problems start to surface.

PTFE was re-engineered to solve these problems and GYLON® is the solution to it.
