PTFE Rods Product Line 

We supply several models of PTFE rods. PTFE, the slipperiest substance known to humankind, suits many applications in even harsh environments. Inert to nearly all chemicals and unaffected by weather patterns, PTFE rods can be used continuously in temperatures between -240ºC and 260ºC, and have excellent electrical properties at all temperatures. Absorbing almost no moisture, Teflon has the lowest static and dynamic coefficient of friction of any solid material. It is only cementable after special treatment, and cannot be welded.

PTFE Rods Industrial Applications

We serve the chemical, aerospace, automotive, electrical, and tooling industries, among others. Our customers use our virgin and glass-filled PTFE rods to manufacture pump components, bushings, electrical parts, seals, laboratory equipment and more.

We are committed to constantly improve the quality of our products and customer service, and our Toronto and Montreal facilities are registered to ISO 9001:2008. We can also provide technical support in property data, ranked properties, chemical resistance, machining instructions and plastics identification.
