A Teflon® PFA body, reinforced with high-tensile-strength carbon fiber — CR-6100 offers excellent chemical resistance while exhibiting superior resistance to creep — even up to 288°C (550°F)! It also provides excellent wear resistance and easy machinability for tight-tolerance applications. Add in a CTE lower than steel in the x-y plane (due to planar carbon-fiber reinforcement), and you have an ideal material for a variety of applications.
The ultimate in chemical and creep resistance for:
- Valve plates, seats and seals
- Pump and compressor components
- Gaskets
- Thrust washers
- Mechanical seals, wear strips and plates
- Bearings and bushings
- Grinding, lapping and polishing components
Benefits
- Outstanding creep resistance — even up to 288°C (550°F)
- Excellent chemical and wear resistance
- Easy machinability for tight-tolerance applications
- Virtually no water absorption
- Ideal for chemical and petroleum processing applications
- CTE lower than steel
