PTFE O-Rings
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), or Teflon, is a plastic polymer desired for its excellent mechanical properties. While most seals are made from natural or synthetic rubbers, PTFE is a plastic that offers unique sealing benefits in its own right. These O-rings are ideal for highly stressful environments, as Teflon is highly durable and can withstand extreme conditions.
At Ace Seal, we offer a wide selection of custom-manufactured O-rings to provide you with exactly what you need. Contact us with any questions or to learn more about PTFE encapsulated O-rings.
