About Plastic

This film is made with virgin Teflon® PTFE resins. It can handle extreme temperatures and resists most solvents. It’s also an excellent electrical insulator. PTFE has a naturally slippery surface that allows objects to easily slide across it. This film is skived, so the edges may curl.

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

Chemical-Resistant Slippery PTFE Film

PTFE has a naturally slippery surface that allows objects to easily slide across it. It resists most solvents and stands up to extreme temperatures. It’s also an excellent electrical insulator.

Film with a coarse texture masks scratches, scuffs, and fingerprints.

Film with a smooth texture is skived, so the edges may curl.

Chemical-Resistant Slippery PTFE Sheets

The naturally slippery surface makes these sheets a good choice for bearings, gears, and parts that slide and roll. PTFE surpasses most plastic when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures. It is easy to machine and is an excellent electrical insulator.

Skived sheets are more likely to curl than molded sheets.

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

Color: See table
Temperature Range: -400° to 550° F
Tensile Strength: 2,000-3,100 psi (Poor)
Impact Strength: 6 ft.-lbs./in. (Excellent)
Hardness: Not Rated (Medium)
For Use Outdoors: No

These sheets are manufactured from Rulon PTFE, a PTFE material that’s been modified with an epoxy-coated fiber. 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.

Grade J is the most slippery of the Rulon materials and is often used to make gaskets and wear strips.

Grade LR is often used for sleeve, flange, and linear bearings.

Durable Glass-Filled Chemical-Resistant
Slippery PTFE Sheets

Color: Off-White
Temperature Range: -350° to 500° F
Tensile Strength: 1,000-2,500 psi (Poor)
Impact Strength: Not Rated
Hardness: Durometer 55D-66D (Medium Soft)
For Use Outdoors: Yes
Specifications Met: UL 94V0

These glass-filled PTFE sheets offer increased rigidity over standard PTFE sheets for durability in high-stress applications. They’ll also resist expanding when exposed to water and heat, so you can machine them to close tolerances. PTFE is known for its naturally slippery surface, as well as its superior resistance to chemicals and extreme temperatures. These sheets are skived, so the edges may curl.
