PTFE CF25

PTFE CF25 is a PTFE with added graphite (25%). Because of the additive, the material has a lower coefficient of friction than pure PTFE, and its load‑resistance is better. The material is also electrically and thermally conductive. We deliver PTFE CF25 as plastic sheets, rods, foils and as hollow rods.
