PTFE Tube

PTFE TUBE is a high-performance fluoropolymer tubing known for its excellent chemical resistance, high-temperature tolerance, and low friction properties. Widely used in chemical, medical, electrical, and industrial applications, PTFE Tubing ensures reliability and durability under demanding conditions.

Specialized forms, such as PTFE Heat Shrink Tubing, PTFE Heat Shrink, and PTFE Shrink Tubing, provide secure insulation and protection for wires, cables, and components, offering a tight, reliable fit when exposed to heat. PTFE Pipe is also commonly used for fluid transfer, chemical piping, and high-purity applications.

Key Features & Advantages

1. Chemical Resistance – PTFE tubing is highly resistant to acids, bases, solvents, and most aggressive chemicals.

2. High-Temperature Tolerance – Can withstand continuous temperatures up to 260°C, making it suitable for high-heat environments.

3. Low Friction & Non-Stick – Ideal for applications requiring smooth fluid flow or minimal resistance.

4. Durable Insulation – PTFE Heat Shrink Tubing and PTFE Shrink Tubing provide secure electrical insulation and component protection.

5. Versatility – Available in multiple sizes, diameters, and shrink ratios for various industrial, electrical, and fluid transfer applications.
