PTFE + Mica 207
The composition of the raw materials used for the production of FLUOROSINT 207 meets the requirements of the directives of the European Union and the American FDA regulations concerning plastic materials intended to come into contact with foodstuffs. In combination with the good mechanical performance of FLUOROSINT and its inherent outstanding chemical and hydrolysis resistance, this feature opens numerous application possibilities in food, pharmaceutical and medical* industries.
Profile
- Very high max. allowable service temperature in air (continuously 260°C)
- Excellent chemical and hydrolysis resistance
- Good wear resistance
- Low coefficient of friction
- Very good dimensional stability
- Physiologically inert (only applies to FLUOROSINT 207)
- Good electrical insulating properties
- Outstanding UV- and weather resistance
- Inherent low flammability
Applications
- Labyrinth seals and shrouds
- Abradable seals in turbomachinery fabricated from FluorosintŪ 500 tubular bar perform reliably in hostile chemical environments while providing dramatic efficiency gains.
- Dishwasher arm bearing
- These bearings made of FluorosintŪ 207 offer a 20 year service life, and FDA compliance.
- Transmission and Power Steering Seal Rings
- Europe's premier automobile manufacturers choose FluorosintŪ 500 over other filled PTFE for improved performance and service life capabilities.
- Valve seats
- Seats fabricated from FluorosintŪ 207 excel in steam and hot air service due to their non-permeability, excellent dimensional stability and low wear rate.
