PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene)
Exceptional performance in sliding, chemical resistance, and extreme conditions
PTFE is one of the highest-performing materials for critical industrial applications.
It is non-toxic, highly resistant to chemical agents (except hydrofluoric acid and strong bases), does not absorb water, offers excellent dielectric properties, and has one of the lowest coefficients of friction available.
Tecno Plastic machines PTFE in multiple formulations, developed to ensure superior performance in the most demanding industries.
PTFE grades we machine
Virgin PTFE
Pure, inert PTFE, resistant to high temperatures and featuring non-stick properties. Ideal for corrosive, food-grade, or medical environments.
Advantages
Maximum sliding performance, chemical resistance, dielectric properties, food-contact suitability.
Application fields
Pumps and fluid systems, chemical, medical, food processing, oil & gas, mechanical, railway, bottling.
PTFE + Glass Fiber (25%)
Glass-fiber-filled PTFE to increase wear resistance and rigidity. More stable under load than virgin PTFE.
Advantages
Improved wear resistance, reduced deformation, good dimensional stability.
Application fields
Pumps and fluid systems, chemical, medical, food processing, oil & gas, mechanical.
PTFE + Steel
Filled with metal powders to improve compressive strength and conductivity. Effective in static and thermally demanding environments.
