Modifed PTFE Styles
PTFE can be expanded to be softer and more conformable. PTFE can also be filled with other materials to enhance performance.
Expanded PTFE
PTFE Sheet Gasket Material
PTFE has been a solution to a wide range of sealing applications since the 1950's. Over the years PTFE has been modified to overcome issues such as cold flow, conductivity and abrasion resistance through the use of fillers. The methods of producing filled materials includes both Skiving and the HS10 method. Expanded PTFE (EPTFE) creates a softer form of PTFE that will seal faster with far lower bolt load. EPTFE is ideal for glass lined pipe applications. We offer all of the above.

Mechanical Grade PTFE
resin sheet Gasketing
Mechanical grade PTFE resin is suitable for most
applications where PTFE is used. Mechanical grade is produced
with a very small percentage of reprocessed (recycled) PTFE. It is
ideal for a wide range of gasketing applications. Food, and
Chemical applications are often sealed using PTFE . PTFE sheets are available in both Virgin, Mechanical and Expanded
PTFE grades (EPTFE).
PTFE is resistant to: acids, alkalis, solvents or corrosives |

WHAT IS PTFE®? And WHAT IS Teflon?
PTFE stands for PolyTetraFluoroEthylene, which is the generic term for the polymer (CF2)n.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), (The Chemours Company trademark (formerly DuPont’s) is Teflon®). It is a thermoplastic.. PTFE has a very low coefficient of friction. PTFE also has excellent insulating properties. Chemically PTFE is inert to most substances. It also can withstand high temperature applications (to 500°F). It is also very good for low temperature applications to -100°F (-73°C). Due to it's anti-stick properties it makes it an easy gasket or seal to remove..
