Virgin PTFE Rod
Rod sizes range from 1 mm to 600 mm in diameter. Virgin PTFE materials known and is used in many different applications and industries
Description
Virgin PTFE rod made of 100% PTFE, with no filler. It has extreme chemical resistance and a massive temperature range and is completely unaffected by UV and has excellent electrical insulation properties.
PTFE, also called Teflon. Virgin PTFE is one of the most chemically inert materials known and is used in many different applications and industries.
In addition to virgin PTFE, we manufacture PTFE with fillers such as bronze, carbon, graphite, Ekonol, polyimide, and glass fibre.
Advantages
- Wide temperature range and excellent thermal stability
- Very low coefficient of friction
- Excellent electrical insulation
- Excellent electrical insulation
- Extreme chemical resistance
- FDA-approved
Applications
PTFE is an incredibly useful material with a wide variety of applications. Virgin PTFE rod is suitable for industries like food, beverage, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, electrical and general engineering.
