Plastics Natural PCTFE Rod Polychlorotrifluoroethylene Rod

A unique fluoropolymer with both chlorine and fluorine in its composition, PCTFE has high compressive strength and stability over a wide range of temperatures. It is a rigid material that exhibits good dimensional stability and low deformation under load. This material has near zero moisture absorption and will retain its dimensional stability in humid or marine environments.

PCTFE is radiation resistant and non-flammable. It will continue to perform well in in extreme temperatures ranging from -400°F to 284°F.

PCTFE meets the following classifications:

• ASTM D 1430-89 Type 1, Grade 2
• ASTM D 1430-95 Type 1, Grade 3
• ASTM D 1430-17 Group 1, Class 1, Grade 3
• ASTM D 7211-18 (section 8.8)
• ASTM D 7194-19 (section 10.4)
• FDA Compliance per 21 CFR177.1380
• USP Class VI compliant

PCTFE has applications in aerospace, scientific endeavors, nuclear applications, and more.

• Seals and gaskets
• Lab instruments
• Liquid oxygen and liquid nitrogen valve linings
• High radiation exposure/nuclear service applications
• Cryogenic/chemical processing

In aerospace:

• Valve seats
• Impellers
• Pump parts
