Applications for PTFE Sheet.
Because of its impressive all-round capabilities in resisting chemicals, heat, cold and preventing friction or electrical current transfer, PTFE is widely used in a large variety of industries and applications. Some of the more popular ones we see include:
- As a thermal insulation material for electronics, HVAC and industrial equipment.
- Slide bearings.
- Piston rings, glide rings and back-up rings.
- Chevron seals.
- As an electrical insulation material for low, medium or high voltage electric motors and devices.
- For making high temperature, chemical resistant washers and gaskets.
- For the manufacture of chemical resistant seals for pumps and valves.
- In the warehousing and distribution industry for conveyor slides and on packaging machines.
- In the building industry for parts and components (PTFE has excellent weathering resistance).
- The manufacture of cryogenic seals and parts.
- In the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industry for making slides, guides and wear strips.
