PTFE GLASS FIBER FILLED
PTFE glass fiber material has the least effect on chemical and electrical properties and add greatly to the mechanical properties of unfilled PTFE. The addition of glass improves compressive properties by as much as 40% and improves wear resistance greatly. These compounds resist acids and oxidation, but can be attacked by alkalis.

PTFE GRAPHITE FIBER FILLED
PTFE Graphite fiber filled offers improved chemical resistance to corrosive environments and exhibits good initial wear and rubbing/sliding characteristics in dry and water applications. Graphite is commonly blended with carbon and PTFE.

PTFE BRONZE FILLED
Bronze filled PTFE has better wear, creep resistance, and higher thermal conductivity than glass fiber with PTFE. The compound is easily machined, but has poor chemical resistance in the presence of acids and alkali. PTFE Bronze is useful in applications, which undergo high mechanical loads or high-speed rubbing contacts where the bronze filler supplies the strength and conductivity to carry away excess, unwanted heat.

PTFE CARBON FILLED
Carbon Filled PTFE has good chemical resistance to corrosive environments. It exhibits good initial wear and rubbing or sliding contact characteristics, both dry and water applications. PTFE Carbon Filled is frequently used in piston rings to reduce cylinder wall wear by entrapping abrasive foreign particles in their relatively soft surfaces.

PTFE MOLYBDENUM DISULFIDE FILLED
PTFE Molybdenum Disulfide filler is used frequently in combination with others to increase surface hardness, stiffness, and to reduce the starting coefficient of friction and increase wear. PTFE Molybdenum Disulfide filler effect on electrical and chemical properties is negligible.
