PTFE Insulator Half-Round Rod/Round Rod
Insulator Half-Round Rod/Round Rod (PTFE)
Properties
PTFE is a versatile polymer renowned for its low friction coefficient, high-temperature resistance, excellent electrical insulation, non-stick properties, biocompatibility, and UV resistance.
This combination makes it invaluable in various applications, from reducing friction in bearings to serving as a nonstick coating in cookware. Its stability, flexibility at low temperatures, and resistance to chemicals contribute to its widespread use across industries.
Applications
- Parts requiring high dimensional stability (gear, guide roller, bearing, etc.)
- Parts used in a wet environment.
Characteristics
- Temperature Range: Can withstand temperatures from -200°C to 260°C.
- Chemical Resistance: Highly resistant to most chemicals and solvents.
- However, the material becomes softer than PEI after being exposed to high temperatures, which can lead to deformation.
