National Fluoromers is a trusted manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of PTFE wear/slide lining sheets, also referred to as Turcite®-type sheets and strips. These specially formulated PTFE-based materials are designed to provide low friction, superior wear resistance, and reliable dimensional stability in dynamic sliding applications.

Engineered to extend the life of machine tools, guides, bearings, and hydraulic equipment, our slideway sheets reduce stick-slip motion and ensure smooth linear movement under varying loads.

what are PTFE wear/slide lining sheets?

PTFE wear or slide lining sheets are reinforced PTFE-based materials that are optimized for sliding applications involving frequent motion, heavy loads, or sensitive alignment. They are typically installed as bearing surfaces, guideway linings, or anti-friction pads on machine beds, slides, or cylinders.

These sheets are comparable to Turcite® (a registered brand) and offer equivalent properties for friction reduction, wear resistance, and dry-running performance.

key features
  • Low coefficient of friction: Ideal for dry or lubricated linear movement.
  • Excellent wear resistance: Withstands repeated motion without deformation.
  • Stick-slip free operation: Ensures accuracy and smooth transition speeds.
  • Chemically resistant: Inert to oils, greases, coolants, and most chemicals.
  • Easy to bond or bolt: Can be glued or mechanically fastened to substrates.
  • Wide range of thicknesses & colors: Customizable to machine or application needs.
