Abstract
A low stress-to-seal gasket material is described. Gaskets made according to the present invention comprise at least two tapes of porous PTFE and a substantially air impermeable layer at the interface of the two tape layers. The tape layers each have a non-porous region extending the tape length and separating two porous regions. The non-porous regions of at least two tape layers are not aligned in the z-axis direction.
