PTFE - polytetrafluoroethylene

PTFE

PTFE is the most popular of the fluropolymers.
PTFE suffers high elastic deformity under load which reduces it's effectiveness for bearing applications. It can be filled however, to allow it to be used for more demanding applications. Filled PTFE is not suitable for food contact and should be used where increased hardness, creep resistance, and a lower wear rate are needed.

PTFE PROPERTIES

Excellent in:
    Weather resistance
    Chemical resistance
    Electrical insulation
    Operating temperatures (from -260°C to 260°C)
    Thermal stability
Other properties:
    Approved for food use,
    Low flammability
    Low water absorption
    Very low coefficient of friction
