PTFE pipe

The above-mentioned properties make of PTFE the material of choice when it is necessary to eliminate a number of complex problems that cannot be solved otherwise. However, there are specific applications which claim for higher product performance. In this case, filled PTFE grades are employed whose standard properties are modified with special additives in powder form, such as glass fibres, carbon, graphite, molybdenum bisulphide, bronze, ceramic powder, and even mixes of two or more fillers. According to the filler type and quantity, it is possible to: increase compressive strength increase wear resistance reduce the thermal expansion coefficient vary volume and surface resistivity increase hardness.
