Chemical-Resistant Slippery PTFE U-Channels
- Color: White
- Temperature Range: -350° to 500° F
- Tensile Strength: 2,170-2,800 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: 3.5 ft.-lbs./in. (Good)
- Hardness: Durometer 52D-55D (Medium Soft)
- For Use Outdoors: Yes
- Specifications Met: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1550, SAE AMS3671, ASTM D1710, UL 94 V-0
With a naturally slippery surface, these PTFE U-channels are useful in fabrications that require sliding action, such as frames for panel doors. They surpass most plastics when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures. They’re also excellent electrical insulators and easy to machine.

Chemical-Resistant Slippery PTFE 90° Angles
- Color: White
- Temperature Range: -350° to 500° F
- Tensile Strength: 2,170-2,800 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: 3.5 ft.-lbs./in. (Good)
- Hardness: Durometer 52D-55D (Medium Soft)
- For Use Outdoors: Yes
- Specifications Met: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1550, SAE AMS3671, ASTM D1710, UL 94 V-0
Often used as guide rails and with parts that slide, these 90° angles have a slippery surface that prevents sticking. PTFE surpasses most plastic when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures. It’s also an excellent electrical insulator and easy to machine.

Slippery High-Temperature Plastic Trim
This trim withstands temperatures up to 500° F, which is generally twice as high as our other slippery trim. Made of PTFE, it has a slippery surface to minimize friction between parts and is often used on conveyor rails, chutes, and guides. It's also chemical resistant. This trim has a hard or medium-hard rating to withstand high levels of impact. The harder the trim, the more impact it withstands. All of the trim is nonmarking.
Flexible trim can be bent along a gradual curve. Screw-in trim requires drilling mounting holes and securing it with fasteners. It can be used outdoors.
Push-on trim fits onto an edge and it grips on three sides for a tight hold. It can be used outdoors.
