PTFE – a wide variety of attributes means appreciable flexibility
Some of the benefits of PTFE are that you can neither burn nor melt it. Moreover, by mixing different additives with virgin PTFE, Acoplastic accommodates a wide range of requirements including minimal friction, UV resistance, self-lubricating attributes and extra-long durability. Irrespective of the degree of difficulty, Acoplastic can improve your existing PTFE solution and put together precisely the attributes you need.
