DuPont™ Vespel® parts & shapes

Has the same resistance to creep and chemicals as CR-6100, but with a more random orientation of its fiber. Consequently, CR-6200 doesn’t exhibit the degree of x-y property orientation provided by CR-6100, but offers a balance of properties in the z and x-y directions instead.

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
