GENERAL DESCRIPTION Fluorosint ® is a proprietary mixture in which synthetically manufactured mica is chemically linked to PolyTetraFluoroEthylene (PTFE). This bonding results in properties not normally attainable in reinforced PTFE. Fluorosint ® grades offer an excellent combination of low frictional properties and dimensional stability. Fluorosint ® is produced only by Quadrant DSM Engineering Plastic Products.
FLUOROSINT ® MT-01
Ultra-High Performance Grade For Stability At Elevated Temperature
Fluorosint ® MT-01 is an extreme service grade developed specifically for applications where the benefits of PTFE-based materials also require strength, stiffness and stability. Fluorosint MT-01 delivers high mechanical performance at elevated temperature and as a result is often specified in seat, seal, and wear applications where extreme conditions are present.
COMMON APPLICATIONS
- High temperature seals
- Linear guides
- Wear bands
- Ovens and dryers
