PTFE O Rings

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a high molecular weight polymer, one of the most versatile plastic materials known and useful for a large range of products for applications excluded from other materials. Teflon o-rings are known for high heat resistance, high resistance to chemical agents and solvents, anti-adhesiveness, dielectric properties, low friction coefficient, and non-toxicity.

The tensile and compressive properties are to a large degree influenced by the working processes and the polymer used. PTFE, however, can be used continuously at temperatures up to 250°C (482°F), while possessing still certain compressive plasticity at temperatures near to the absolute zero.
