PTFE rod is composed of PTFE resin. Because of its high corrosion resistance, it is often used for gaskets, seals and lubricating materials that work in corrosive media. Its operating temperature is -200 degrees Celsius to +260 degrees Celsius between.
1. Application of PTFE rod
There are two types of PTFE rods: push rods and molded rods. Among the known plastics, PTFE has the best chemical resistance and dielectric properties, and can be used at temperatures from -180 to +260, and With the lowest coefficient of friction, it is mainly suitable for some long products and non-standard mechanical parts: seals/washers, ring materials, wear plates/seats, insulating parts, corrosion-resistant industries, mechanical parts, linings, petroleum and Natural gas, petrochemical industry, chemical industry, instrument and equipment manufacturers, etc.
Chemical industry: It can be used as an anti-corrosion material and can manufacture various anti-corrosion parts, such as pipes, valves, pumps and pipe fittings. In terms of chemical equipment, linings and coatings for reactors, distillation towers and anticorrosive equipment can be made.
Mechanical aspect: It can be used as self-lubricating bearings, piston rings, oil seals and sealing rings, etc. Self-lubrication can reduce the wear and heat of mechanical parts and reduce power consumption.
Electronics and electrical appliances: Mainly used to manufacture various wires and cables, battery electrodes, battery separators, printed circuit boards, etc.
Medical materials: Taking advantage of their heat-resistant, water-resistant, and non-toxic properties, they can be used as materials for various medical devices and artificial organs. The former include sterile filters, beakers, and artificial heart-lung devices, while the latter include artificial blood vessels, heart, and esophagus. It has been widely used as a sealing material and filling material.
