PTFE rod Rulon® 945

wear-resistantchemical-resistantfor high-temperature applications

Overview
Rulon® 945 is a black PTFE-based material with very low wear and the lowest deformation under load among Rulon® grades. It is designed for demanding thermal applications and offers excellent chemical resistance and good dimensional stability. Its moderate abrasive characteristics make it most suitable against hard mating surfaces such as hardened steel. Not suitable where electrical insulation is required.
