RS PRO Opaque Fluoroplastics PTFE Rod, 1 m Length, 6 mm Diameter, Polytetrafluoroethylene Material 680-612

RS PRO 680-612 Opaque Fluoroplastics PTFE Rod is a premium quality polytetrafluoroethylene rod measuring 1 meter in length with a 6 mm diameter. Known for its durability and unique properties, this PTFE rod provides excellent resistance to a wide range of organic and inorganic chemicals. It is engineered for use in demanding industrial environments including automotive, food processing, medical device manufacturing, and chemical processing.

This rod withstands continuous operating temperatures up to 260°C and can operate in temperatures as low as -200°C, making it highly versatile for varying project requirements. Its low friction and non-stick surface reduce wear and tear on moving parts, while electrical properties provide insulation and dielectric strength important in electrical applications.

The material is fully opaque with a natural beige color and maintains its integrity under exposure to steam, high-pressure water, UV radiation, and weather conditions. The rod exhibits a tensile strength of 25 MPa, elongation of 50%, and minimal water absorption at 0.3%.

Ideal uses for this PTFE Rod include bushings, insulators, rollers, gears, sheaves, and specialized medical device components or implants. Its biocompatibility ensures safe use in sterile and medical environments.

The rod material is chemically inert and resistant to acids, solvents, and high-pressure conditions. Its hardness and elongation values make it suitable for structural applications requiring flexibility and strength. Complies with rigorous international standards such as ISO 9001, REACH, FDA, and RoHS, ensuring quality and safety.

Crafted in Italy with quality controlled manufacturing processes.
