PTFE Structural Slide Bearings
Designed for expansion, rather than strain

AFT Fluorotec Structural Bearings can reduce construction costs by designing for expansion rather than strain. They can easily be installed on-site or pre-assembled.

PTFE used within the bearing naturally provides an electric and thermal insulation which can be increased with a further layer of elastomeric material.
