Liner Material

Description

Applications

Foamed Polyethylene

(PE Foam)

A one piece, three ply coextruded liner consisting of both foamed and solid

LDPE. The foam core is sandwiched with solid clear PE.

General Purpose: Broad applications base. Good chemical resistance to acids, alkalis, solvents,

alcohols, oils, household cosmetics and aqueous products. Poor for hydrocarbon solvents. Liner

provides tight seal.

Pulp / Metal Foil

Aluminum foil bonded to pulp board.

Good barrier properties and resistance to hydrocarbons, oils, ketones and alcohols. Not good for

acids or alkalis.

Polyethylene Cone

(PE Cone)

Manufactured from polyethylene (LDPE). The unique cone design provides

a wedge type seal that not only seals across the top but also across the

inside diameter.

Unique problem solving type of liner. This liner is stress crack resistant and offers superior torque

retention and excellent sealing characteristics. It is recommended that this liner be tested prior

to use for leak seal.

Note: Closures and liners are designed for a variety of applications. Product performance can vary depending on conditions. It is recommended that proper tests be performed to determine the best liner for the application.
