Teflon PTFE Gland Packing (Pure)

Description

PTFE gland packing is a type of packing used to seal pumps, valves, mixers, and sliders. It’s made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a material known for its low friction and resistance to chemicals. PTFE gland packing is often used in applications that require high chemical resistance and low friction, such as in the chemical, pharmaceutical, petroleum refining, and food processing industries.

Here are some benefits of PTFE gland packing:

• Chemical resistance: PTFE gland packing can withstand almost every known chemical substance.
• Temperature resistance: PTFE gland packing can withstand temperatures up to +260°C.
• Low friction: PTFE gland packing has a low friction finish that prevents leakage.
• Long lasting: PTFE gland packing is tough and long lasting. 
• FDA approved: Some PTFE gland packings are FDA approved

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) gland packing has many properties, including:

• Chemical resistance: PTFE is highly resistant to almost all chemicals, including acids, bases, solvents, and corrosive media.
• Low friction: PTFE has a low coefficient of friction, so it doesn’t require additional lubrication. 
• Temperature resistance: PTFE can withstand a wide range of temperatures, from cryogenic conditions to around 260°C (500°F).
• Non-aging: PTFE doesn’t degrade over time, so it performs well for a long time.
• Non-reactive: PTFE is compatible with many complex media. 
• Non-toxic: PTFE is non-toxic and approved for use in food contact applications. 

PTFE gland packing is used in many industries, including petrochemicals, textiles, paper and pulp, chemicals, power plants, and food processing. It’s used to seal pumps, mixers, valves, and sliders
