PTFE lined EPDM seat consists of a PTFE liner which forms the faces and the flow way of the seat, and is molded on to an EPDM elastomer backing. Only the inert non-stick PTFE liner surface is exposed to the line media. The EPDM backing acts as a resilient support to the relatively rigid PTFE. These seats are generally used where BUNA-N and EPDM seats are not chemically suitable, especially in corrosive services
