Teflon Rod

Teflon (PTFE) has excellent thermal and electrical insulation properties. And, it has a low coefficient of friction. It is difficult to make anything adhere to PTFE. A material may stick to it, but the material can be peeled off or rubbed off. PTFE was the first fluorocarbon. It is the most chemically resistant plastic known. Only a few chemicals react with it. Its mechanical properties are low compared to other engineering plastics, but its properties remain at a useful level over a great temperature range — from -400 to 500°F (-240 to 260°C). Teflon rods are cylindrical Teflon bars that has outstanding wear resistance and low frictional properties and are normally available in 1 Foot Length. Its varied applications include making of Teflon Bushes, Gears, Sprockets, Bearings, Rollers.
