Case Study for Problem Solving | Want to Increase Strength with Filled PTFE

Machining of PTFE with filler material | Production of fluororesin parts with enhanced wear resistance and creep resistance

We flexibly respond to the machining of filled PTFE. PTFE has excellent properties such as "heat resistance, chemical resistance, electrical insulation, non-stickiness, and low friction," but depending on the application, it may exhibit weaknesses such as "susceptibility to deformation, fragility, and wear." Therefore, by adding fillers such as carbon fibers or graphite to PTFE, we enhance its properties while improving: ★ Wear resistance ★ Creep resistance ★ Sliding characteristics ★ Mechanical strength This is the filled PTFE material. 【Do you have any of these concerns?】 - PTFE products are prone to deformation and breakage - Rapid wear leads to a short lifespan of parts - Creep occurs under load - Wear or seizure occurs at sliding parts - You want to utilize PTFE's properties but also need strength 【Benefits of Fillers】 - Improved wear resistance allows for longer-lasting parts - Enhanced creep resistance ensures reliability even in load-bearing applications - Improved sliding characteristics enable stable operation - The inherent chemical resistance, heat resistance, and low friction of PTFE remain intact If you let us know your application, we can provide the best proposal.
