PTFE Rod, Teflon Rod Manufacturer

PTFE Rod (trade name Teflon) is officially in the record books as having the lowest co-efficient of friction of any solid material and is extremely effective operating at extremely high and  low temperatures. PTFE Rod has fantastic chemical resistance and superb electrical insulation properties. PTFE Rod can be tricky to bond, but it is non melting and is self extinguishing. Our virgin grade PTFE Rod is available in white only. PTFE Rod is an extremely versatile engineering plastic that has many important performance advantages over other materials and has helped PTFE Rod become one of the most important engineering materials available at the moment. .Diameter:3-250mm Any length other details, please contact me. usual length: 1000mm, we have 1000mm length in stock. if you want other length, we also can do it. We  can do CNC machining jobs. ROHS certification & ISO9001 . Features of PTFE RodOne key important advantage of PTFE Rod is its operating temperature range, it can easily out perform other engineering plastics by being able to perform continuously at -250°C, right up to an amazing 250°C. Another important advantage of PTFE Rod is its outstanding co-efficient of friction, PTFE is in the record books as having one of the lowest friction values known to man. PTFE also has excellent acid and chemical resistance. Another feature of PTFE is its ability to set by or due to compression. PTFE has excellent electrical resistance. PTFE is also water repellent and is often used in the manufacture of modern high performing, water repellent and breathable clothing. . Applications for PTFE RodPTFE is excellent for low friction bearings, bushes, rollers and pulleys. PTFE is also almost exclusively used in cryogenic components due to its ultra low operating temperatures. PTFE Rod is regularly used for seals. PTFE Rod has become a very important engineering plastic used within the aerospace industry and aeronautics. PTFE is often used within the food industry companies. Another useful application over the years has been in the use of product or component handles due to its resistance to heat and heat transfer. When an application for electrical resistance becomes too high for other materials, PTFE Rod can fill a very important gap. . Advantages of PTFE RodBecause PTFE has such a low co-efficient of friction it offers a material that when used will reduce load and drag in bearings to improve efficiency and reduce frictional losses and PTFE will outlast other materials. Because PTFE Rod will set due to compression, PTFE seals will conform to mating components resulting in excellent sealing capacity. PTFE is reasonably easy to machine which helps with reduced machining costs and increased capacity and efficiency. PTFE is resistant to most acids allowing this material to be used in aggressive environments to where such materials as Polypropylene are unsatisfactory. . Availability of Extruded PTFE RodExtruded PTFE Rod is available in diameters as small as 4mm and as large as 120mm. PTFE Rod is also available in lengths of 2m up to 100mm diameter which is the normal maximum diameter of extruded PTFE and then reduces in available produced lengths due to range availability being produced in molded rod. . Additives of PTFE RodAlthough PTFE is an excellent material, PTFE Rod can further be enhanced by adding performance enhancers into the production process such as Molybdenum, Bronze, Graphite etc. This can further expand its suitability for other applications. . Data information for PTFE RodPTFE is a synthetic fluoropolymer. Maximum long term working temperature is 260°C. Maximum short term working temperature is 260°C. Melting point is 327°C. Co-efficient of friction is 0.08. Density is 2.18g/cm3 .
