Gylon® Style 3500 Gasket Material is a premium-grade, chemically resistant gasket sheet made from a combination of PTFE with silica fillers. Often referred to as Fawn Gylon because of its distinctive colour, Gylon 3500 has excellent chemical resistance, a number of approvals and certifications, and very good sealing capabilities.
Manufactured by Garlock, this high quality industrial gasket sheet has been used in the most demanding of sealing applications in Australia and around the world. We are pleased to offer this quality material in a selection of sheet sizes and thicknesses (click the link on the right to browse our range of standard sheets or contact us for a quote on cut Gylon 3500 gaskets.
More information on the material, popular applications and how to buy Gylon 3500 online is included below.
Gylon Style 3500 has a maximum pressure rating of 1,200 psig, or 83 bar. It can also handle applications across a wide range of temperatures with a minimum of -268°C and a maximum of +260°C.
Like all gasket materials, maximum operating pressure and temperature and related. The closer the application temperature is to the maximum, the lower the maximum pressure rating. For more information on the relationship between these two factors, please refer to the Garlock Gylon Style 3500 Technical Data Sheet.
As a PTFE based gasket material, Gylon Style 3500 has exceptional resistance to many different types of chemicals and aggressive media. This gasket sheet resists attack from strong acids (except hydrofluoric), steam, solvents, hydrocarbons, chlorine and cryogenics. It is also suitable for use in sealing a wide range of less aggressive media such as water, sewage, natural gas & more.
Gylon 3500Gaskets have been used for demanding applications in all kinds of industries. Over the years, they have been certified for use in numerous applications that require precision performance. These include:
ABS – American Beaureu of Shipping.
FDA – American Food & Drug Administration
Style 3500 meets FDA 21CFR177.1550.
The fillers are acceptable under 21CFR177.2600.
Colouring Agents under 21CFR178.3297.
USDA – United States Department of Agriculture.
Gylon 3500 has USDA approval for direct contact in meat and poultry applications.
Gylon 3500 is typically used for sealing highly aggressive media, or critical applications such as those found in the food, beverage or pharmaceutical industries. Its wide ranging chemical resistance and reasonable temperature & pressure resistance has also led to its widespread use in mining, metal processing, oil & gas and wastewater treatment / water-recycling applications.
