Why PTFE (Teflon) Tube?
- Chemical inertness: carries aggressive chemicals without attack or contamination
- Non-stick bore: media flows cleanly and residues do not build up
- Temperature range: from cryogenic to around 260°C
- Electrical insulation: used as insulating sleeves
- Machinable: moulded tube is used as blanks for bushes, seals and rings
Applications
- Chemical transfer and sampling lines
- Liners and sleeves for pipes and equipment
- Blanks for machined bushes, piston rings and seals
- Electrical insulation sleeves
- Laboratory and instrument tubing
Extruded or Moulded Tube?
Extruded PTFE tube is made continuously, so it suits thin walls and long lengths for tubing and sleeves. Moulded PTFE tube is pressed and sintered in larger, thick-wall sizes and is the usual blank for machined rings and bushes. Tell us the inner and outer diameter, length and grade.

Send us your sizes, quantities and service conditions (fluid, temperature, pressure) and our Al Khobar team will confirm availability, lead time and a quotation for delivery anywhere in Saudi Arabia and the GCC. Every order is supplied with a Material Test Certificate.
Typical properties and uses
Virgin PTFE is suitable for continuous service from about -200 °C to +260 °C and resists almost all industrial chemicals, which is why it is used for chemical transfer lines, instrument and sampling lines, and protective sleeves over wires. Its very low friction and non-stick surface also make it useful for guide sleeves and liners where material must slide freely. Filled grades, such as glass or carbon filled, are chosen when a machined ring or bush needs better wear resistance and less creep under load. When you order, state the inside diameter, outside diameter, length and grade, together with the fluid, temperature and pressure, so our team can confirm the right material and a realistic delivery date.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. Is Teflon tube the same as PTFE tube?
A. Yes. Teflon is a brand name for PTFE, so Teflon tube and PTFE tube are the same product.
Q2. What is the difference between extruded and moulded PTFE tube?
A. Extruded tube is thin-wall and long; moulded tube is thick-wall and used as blanks for machined parts.
Q3. Can you supply filled PTFE tube?
A. Yes, glass, carbon and bronze-filled grades can be supplied on request.
Q4. Do you cut PTFE tube to length?
A. Yes. We supply full or cut lengths and machined parts.
