AKU®-FLON PTFE GF30 with 30% glass fiber reinforcement as ROUND RODS or SOLID BARS

Our solid rods made of PTFE GF30 are a PTFE compound reinforced with 30 % glass fibers.

This reinforcement increases the mechanical strength, abrasion resistance and dimensional stability while maintaining the excellent chemical resistance and low friction of pure PTFE.

PTFE GF30 is particularly suitable for applications where high mechanical stresses occur, such as in bearing bushes, seals and plain bearings in the automotive and mechanical engineering industries.

Polytetrafluoroethylene

abbreviated to PTFE, is a synthetic fluoroplastic known for its unique chemical and physical properties. PTFE is produced by the polymerization of tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and is best known under the brand name Teflon®.

Properties of PTFE:

High temperature resistance:
PTFE is extremely heat-resistant and can withstand temperatures of up to 260°C without changing its structural properties. This property makes it suitable for applications in extreme temperature ranges.
Excellent chemical resistance:
PTFE shows exceptional resistance to a wide range of chemicals, acids and bases. It is inert to most chemical substances and is therefore often used in demanding chemical environments.
Lubricity:
The surface of PTFE is extremely smooth, which results in excellent lubricity. This makes it suitable for applications in mechanical engineering and as a sliding material in bearings and seals.
Low friction:
PTFE has low friction, which makes it interesting for applications in the automotive industry, food processing and other areas.
Electrical insulation:
PTFE is an excellent insulator and is therefore frequently used in the electrical industry for the manufacture of cables, connectors and insulators.
Good weather resistance:
PTFE is resistant to UV radiation and weathering, making it suitable for outdoor use.

Applications of PTFE:

PTFE is used in a variety of applications, including:

Chemical industry: valves, pipelines, seals and containers due to its chemical resistance.
Electrical and electronics industry: cable insulation, connectors and other electrical components.
Food processing: non-stick coatings for cookware, seals and conveyor belts.
Medical technology: implants, tubes and seals due to its biocompatibility.
Automotive industry: Seals, bearings, slideways and components with high temperature resistance.

PTFE is widely used in various technical applications due to its unique combination of properties.
