PTFE and Filled PTFE
PTFE's mechanical properties are low compared to other plastics, but its properties remain at a useful level over a wide temperature range of -100°C to 180°C. Mechanical properties are often enhanced by adding fillers . It has excellent Chemical resistance, thermal and electrical insulation properties and a low coefficient of friction.
Filled PTFE
PTFE's mechanical properties can be enhanced by adding fillers such as PEEK,glass fibers, carbon, graphite, molybdenum disulphide, and bronze. Generally, filled PTFE's maintain their excellent chemical and high temperature characteristics, while fillers improve mechanical strength, stability, and wear resistance.

PEEK SEATS PEEK is an abbreviation for Polyether Ether-Ketone. It is an organic, polymer thermoplastic with many applications in a wide range of industries. PEEK contains features that make it a viable alternative to metals in some cases. PEEK has excellent chemical resistance, superior wear resistance, and low moisture absorption, plus it can be exposed to hot water or steam and remains unaffected.It's capabilities can be changed by filling the general purpose grade with substances such as PTFE,carbon fibers, fiberglass and combinations of carbon fibers, graphite and lubricants
12
Grades in PEEK
Unfilled •General grade PEEK is the toughest and most ductile of all grades.
Carbon filled
•The addition of approximately 1/3 carbon fibers gives a grade of PEEK that is stiffer and has greater compressive strength. As such, it offers the best wear resistance and load carrying capability of any grade.
Glass filled
•Glass fibers gives a grade that is ideal for structural uses requiring strength and stability, especially when the temperature is more.
Bearing grade
•The addition of carbon fibers, graphite and PTFE (Teflon) lubricants creates PEEK suitable for bearing applications. It has the lowest coefficient of friction of any grade..

GradesFluoro800
1 • PEEK Filled with
20% of PTFE. • Tribological
applications. • Excellent wear
resistance.• Very low
coefficient of friction.
• Chemically resistant to aggressive environment.
Fluoro6001
• PEEK filled with 40% of PTFE
• Extremely low torque for valve seals.
• With addition of more PTFE blend becomes self lubricating.
Fluoro2001
• PTFE added with 20% of PEEK.
• Replacement of CFT and GFT.
• Addition of PEEK gives strength to PTFE
Fluoro3201
• Addition of 32% PEEK in PTFE.
• Extremely low coefficient of friction as compared to Unfilled PTFE and PEEK.
• Wear resistance of this composite is much lower than that of Unfilled PTFE and PEEK.

UHMWPE
Polyethylenes have a higher impact strength, but lower working temperatures and tensile strengths than polypropylene. They are light in weight, resistant to staining, and have low moisture absorption rates.
Light weight (1/8 the weight of mild steel), high in tensile strength, and as simple to machine as wood, UHMW PE is the ideal material for many wear parts
UHMW PE is self-lubricating, shatter resistant, long-wearing, abrasion and corrosion resistant.
