Design limits: The information provided here has been collected with great care on the basis of many years of experience. However, no guarantee can be provided for the data, because proper function can be ensured only if the particular conditions of each individual case are taken into consideration. The material properties are typical for the material class. Please see the relevant material data sheets. We always recommend that you have a prototype created and carry out tests. Our development department will be happy to assist you. Diagrams: The data in the diagrams are based on comparison values...

Broad spectrum of applications for PTFE tubes PTFE is a highly popular fluoropolymer because of its exceptional chemical, thermal, and dielectric properties. Its almost universal chemical resistance and large working temperature range of -200°C to +260°C for continuous operation make it suitable for a broad spectrum of applications. Thanks to these properties, POLYTETRA-FLON™-PTFE tubes are increasingly used in the chemical, electrical, and mechanical industries, as well as in medical technology. Customized properties with PTFE compounds The use of modified PTFE types and PTFE compounds allows...
