Material Data Sheet
Material: Fluorosint® 207
PTFE BasedFluorosint® 207's is a unique material made from synthetic mica that is linked to PTFE. Fluorosint® has extremely high dimensional stability, excellent creep resistant and low thermal expansion. These attributes combined with a continuous use temperature of 500°F, better wear resistance and load capacity then PTFE and Fluorosint® makes for one of the best bearing and wear materials on the market. Fluorosint® is also FDA approved making a great choice for the food processing industry.
