PTFE Products

Product Details:

Made from pure, monoaxially expanded, virgin PTFE, supplied with adhesive backing is a low friction fluoropolymer with outstanding chemical resistance and weathering resistance. PTFE is stable at temperatures up to 260°C and it is often used in high-temperature environments. PTFE also has excellent electrical insulating properties.

Key Characteristics:

• Outstanding chemical resistance
• Good weathering resistance
• Extremely low friction
• Performs well at elevated temperatures
• Soft and formable
• FDA compliant grades available
• Good bearing and wear properties (bearing grades)

Application:
Expanded PTFE Tape can be used in a wide variety of static applications in nearly all industry sectors. The exceptional malleability of expanded PTFE can compensate for out-of-parallel and/or damaged sealing surfaces. This allows use with stress sensitive connections and applications where only a limited flange load is available, e.g., plastic flanges, glass flanges, etc.
Typical applications are the sealing of flanges, pump housings, compressors, handholes and manholes, air ducts, compensators, heat exchangers and much more.

Physical Properties:
Chemical resistance: resistant to most chemicals from pH 0 -14 – main exceptions are molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine at high temperature and pressure

Others: Physiologically harmless. It has no smell or taste. It is neither contaminating nor toxic
