Product Description
Teflon or PTFE insulating washers are flat discs with a centrally located hole. They have superior antifriction properties, as well as excellent chemical and corrosion resistance. These washers are ideal for low-temperature applications.
Main Properties & Application
- High melting point (620° F)
- Excellent insulating properties
- FDA approval for use in food and beverage or pharmaceutical applications
- Good chemical resistance
- Low friction for easy installation and product assembly
- Near-complete water resistance
Common applications of PTFE washers
PTFE insulating washers are found in nearly every industry, including aerospace, automotive, heating and cooling, plumbing, appliances, the list goes on. And thanks to its many unique characteristics, it's also a popular choice for washers and spacers. Its texture allows other components and parts to glide over them easily and being thermal but remaining non-conductive, also makes them a popular choice for use in circuit boards.
PTFE insulating washers can be used in a large variety of ways. They can be used as spacers, provide spring force, sealing washers, insulate, lock, align parts, distribute loads, and even improve aesthetics.
Key Features
PTFE insulating washers are strong, durable, and have one of the lowest coefficient friction levels of any other solid material. They are also chemically resistant and non-conductive with excellent dielectric properties. Plus, PTFE is an excellent insulator and is FDA-approved.
