Specific properties
The PTFE material is designed to provide a low coefficient of friction and deformation in applications. In addition, the material has the highest chemical resistance and can withstand temperatures up to approx. + 230ºC during continuous operation. Fluorescent 135’s extremely competitive pricing allows companies to guard against expensive equipment failure and ensure maximum production, longevity, and profitability.
