PTFE Rods/Teflon Rods / Teflon Bars

PTFE is the most chemical-resistant of all known plastics. It does not age. It has best electrical properties of all plastics.

  PTFE Rods/Teflon Rods / Teflon Bars

Two kinds of PTFE rods to offer.

1) One is made by ram extruding method is the diameter form 10~50mm;

2) Rods over the diameter 50mm are manufactured by moulding.

1. Description:

Recognized as the first fluorocarbon material in the world and referred to as PTFE or TFE, it is the most chemically resistant plastic known. It has a working temperature range of minus 400°F to 500°F, excellent thermal and electrical insulation properties and a low coefficient of friction.

With a non-stick surface, very few materials will adhere to it and those that stick can easily be peeled or rubbed off. PTFE's mechanical properties are lower than other engineering plastics, but that can be improved by adding fillers such as glass fiber, carbon, graphite, molybdenum disulfide and bronze.

2. Features:

l         High chemical resistance

l         High temperature resistance

l         Non-contaminating

l         Maintenance free

l         Long durability

l         Self lubricating
