REINFORCED PTFE |
VIRGIN PTFE |
||
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: |
|||
A reinforced PTFE material that has a low coefficient of friction, high creep resistance, high load bearing capacity and high wear resistance. Specifically developed for slide bearing and skidway applications. |
A PTFE material that has a low coefficient of friction and high chemical inertness. Suitable for a very wide range of applications that require these characteristics. |
