PTFE
- The standard material choice unless other characteristics are needed
- Void-free material isostatically molded from virgin PTFE.
- High density PTFE >2.16g/cm3
- Guaranteed lining thickness of at least 3mm (0.125”), plus high crystallinity
- FDA-compliant
- Operating temperature: -40⁰F to 400⁰F (-40⁰C to 200⁰C)
Material Characteristics
UMPE
- Best option for abrasion resistance
- Lower temperature and chemical resistance compared to PTFE
- Optional FDA compliance
- Operating temperature: -40⁰F to 185⁰F (-40⁰C to 85⁰C)
Material Characteristics
Abrasion-Resistant PTFE
- Carbon-reinforced PTFE
- Used when temperature or chemical resistance is needed with abrasives
- Not FDA-compliant
- Operating temperature: -40⁰F to 400⁰F (-40⁰C to 200⁰C)
Material Characteristics
Anti-Static PTFE
- Graphite-reinforced PTFE
- For explosive medias, liner is conductive
- ATEX-compliant
- Surface resistance < 106Ω
- Volume resistance < 106Ω cm
- FDA-compliant
- Operating temperature: -40⁰F to 400⁰F (-40⁰C to 200⁰C)
