About Plastic

Chemical-Resistant Slippery Sheets and Bars Made from Teflon® PTFE

Made with Teflon® PTFE resins, these sheets and bars surpass most plastics when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures. In addition to resisting most solvents, they are excellent electrical insulators. They're easy to machine and have a naturally slippery surface that makes them a good choice for bearings, gears, and parts that slide and roll.

Sheets and bars with an etched texture have one side that is scuffed to readily accept adhesive; the other side is smooth and is made of FDA listed material.

Skived sheets and bars are more likely to curl than molded sheets and bars.

Wear-, Impact-, and Chemical-Resistant PTFE Sheets

These sheets are manufactured from Rulon PTFE, a PTFE that’s been modified with a filler material. In addition to having the superior chemical and temperature resistance of PTFE, they have excellent impact resistance and a super-slippery surface that resists wear. These easy-to-machine sheets are nonabsorbent, so they won’t swell when exposed to water. They’re also good electrical insulators.

Grade 142 is bronze filled and often used to fabricate linear slides and piston rings.

Sheets with an etched texture have one side that is scuffed to readily accept adhesive; the other side is smooth.
