Key Benefits of Carbon Filled PTFE
Carbon Filled PTFE combines the chemical resistance of virgin PTFE with the added dimensional stability and electrical conductivity that carbon filler provides. Key benefits include:
- Improved Dimensional Stability: Resists cold flow and deformation better than unfilled PTFE under load.
- Electrical Conductivity: Carbon filler makes this grade electrically conductive, useful for anti-static and ESD-sensitive applications.
- Good Wear Resistance: Performs reliably in dynamic sliding and rotating components.
- Chemical Resistance: Retains PTFE’s excellent resistance to most chemicals and solvents.
Carbon Filled PTFE is a common upgrade over virgin PTFE wherever dimensional stability or conductivity matters.
Common Applications of Carbon Filled PTFE
- Pump housings and seals
- Precision machined components
- Bearings and bushings requiring dimensional stability
- Anti-static and ESD-sensitive components
- Valve components exposed to chemical media
