PTFE
PTFE – PolyTetraFluoroEthylene
PTFE, or polytetrafluoroethylene, is available in various grades to cater to different requirements. The options include Virgin grade (unfilled) and filled grades incorporating special additives to achieve desired properties.
PTFE stands out as an excellent material with distinctive characteristics, particularly about the following:
Heat resistance
PTFE exhibits remarkable resistance to high temperatures, making it suitable for extreme heat conditions applications.
Chemical resistance
PTFE demonstrates excellent resistance to various chemicals, making it highly suitable for corrosive environments.
Coefficient of friction
PTFE possesses a low coefficient of friction, resulting in a smooth and non-stick surface, making it useful in applications with reduced friction.
PTFE is available in various stock sizes, including Rod, Tube, Cylinder, and Sheet formats. These different forms offer versatility in choosing the appropriate shape and size for specific applications.
