The optimal performance of any GORE
®
Protective Vent depends on how it is handled and incorporated into the final product.
This includes such elements as the device design, sealing method, and assembly method. While Gore is able to provide
general guidelines based upon its experience with GORE
®
Protective Vents, the device manufacturer is ultimately responsible
for validating each product and its performance for its intended application. Contact a Gore technical sales associate today
for assistance in determining the best GORE
®
Protective Vent for your specific application.
