PTFE Application in Industry


PTFE has high flexural strength, even in low temperatures, which allow industries to use for various applications.

PTFE mainly consist of Fluorine & Carbon. PTFE commonly known as Teflon. In Industries PTFE is widely used In Various Gland Packing/PTFE sheets & envelope with some regular gaskets grades to serve various applications.

PTFE is highly recommended in various industries because for below properties.

  • Resistance to Various gases/Water/Fuels/Chemicals & Oils.
  • PTFE also sustain at various high & Low temperature
  • It is also have high electrical insulating properties.
  • PTFE widely used in Pharma/Food industries.

Below are the industrial applications for PTFE,

Industrial Plant

 PTFE offers good resistance to Water & Water Based substance which help to use PTFE in Industrial plants for various applications  

Regular Gasket Grades with PTFE envelope prevent Leakages & helps to reduce media emissions in industrial plant.

Soft Nature of PTFE helps fluid to flow easily.

Medical Labs

PTFE is anti-corrosive & Non-reactive properties play vital roles in Medical Labs in which highly corrosive media to be handled.

Construction

PTFE’s resistance to environmental changes makes it a suitable material in the construction industry. PTFE sheet manufacturers in India also use it to make envelope gaskets because of its strength and heat resistance. It is also used as a thread seal tape for plumbing.

For architectural purposes, PTFE sheets are used because of its low frictional quality which can extend the life of the construction. This, in turn, reduces the costs of manufacturing and construction.

Food Industry

All the dairy & Beverages Industries widely use PTFE gasket sheet  /PTFE gland packing /PTFE envelope gaskets are used .PTFE grades in food Industries. does not contaminate the liquids which flow through it

Highly reactive substance

 PTFE sheets are widely used for the lining of acid tanks owing to property of high resistance to acids. Highly resistance property of PTFE made highly recommended solution for acid tanks & Other acidic nature products.

Electric Industry

PTFE plays vital role in Electric industry considering excellent insulation property. This feature of PTFE to be used for various products like cables, wires, connectors, electric circuits etc.

Lubricant for various applications

PTFE has excellent lubricating property, hence it is used in machinery. Also PTFE reduces energy usage, reduces friction leading to minimum wear and tear of equipment. PTFE sheet manufacturers play a vital role in industrial applications by supplying a highly durable material to manage operational challenges and ensure industrial safety.
