Bronze Filled PTFE is the go-to solution for bearing elements, piston rings, seals, and guide components in dynamic mechanical systems.
Bronze Filled PTFE is a reinforced PTFE compound incorporating bronze particles to boost strength, reduce wear, and enhance heat dissipation. The bronze content gives it a distinctive golden brown color and makes it more rigid and thermally conductive than unfilled PTFE.
This formulation is ideal for moving parts that endure high mechanical loads, frequent motion, and continuous operation.
