|---|---|
| Film is available in thicknesses from one mil (.001") up to 20 mils (.020"). Because Fluoro-Plastics uses the most modern skiving technology in the world, interim thicknesses are available; widths... | |
| Molded plate is available in thicknesses from 3/8ths of an inch up to four inches. Plate is inventoried in sizes from one-foot square to four feet square (sixteen square feet... | |
| PTFE can be etched with a sodium ammonia or sodium naphthalene etch so that its surface is chemically modified for adhesion to various substrates using ordinary commercial grade epoxies. When... | |
| Skived sheet can be made in any thickness from 15 mils up to .250 inches. Fluoro-Plastics technology makes it possible to make in-between sizes. Thickness tolerances range from .0005 for... | |
| Anti-Static PTFE - Amorphous Carbon powder additive Increased hardness Increased thermal conductivity Adds to creep resistance Excellent wear properties when combined with graphite; carbon/graphite compounds preferred for non-lubricated piston rings... | |
| Adds to hardness and stiffness Reduces friction, especially starting coefficient of friction and steady-state wear Effect on electrical properties is negligible Unreactive chemically, and dissolves only in strong oxidizing acids... | |
| Crystalline modification of high purity carbon Excellent wear properties, particularly against soft metals High load-carrying capability in high speed contact applications Chemically inert Frequently used with other filler, e.g. carbon... | |
| Extremely stiff and hard High loading percentage (50% generally) Available in molded sheet only | |
| High percentage of bronze powder (40-60%) yields high thermal conductivity and better creep resistance Often used in hydraulic systems, particularly superb as linear bearings, e.g. slides, gibs, guide ways Not... | |
| Low Friction Extremely low wear Increased hardness Operates well against soft mating surfaces like aluminum, mild steel, brass and plastics Ideal for stop-start applications to eliminate stick-slip Compare this product... | |
| Lower deformation under load Higher compressive and flex modulus and increased hardness Chemically inert–can be used in strong alkali and in HF, where glass reinforced compounds fail Good initial wear... | |
| Most widely used filler in various percentages (5%, 10%, 15% and 25%) Improves creep resistance, both at low and high temperatures Chemically stable (except for strong alkalis and hydrofluoric acid... | |
| PTFE with FDA compliant filler For food processing and pharmaceutical bearing applications Compatible with a wide variety of mating surfaces, both soft (e.g. mild steel) and harder surfaces Compare this... |
