Notes
Outstanding chemical and temperature resistance, coupled with fluoropolymer's low coefficient of friction, makes AWG & FRACTIONAL FLUOROPOLYMER TUBING an excellent choice on primary conductors as protection from chemical contact or temperature extremes.
AWG & FRACTIONAL FLUOROPOLYMER TUBING resists melt-off by soldering irons when making electrical terminations, especially in close-quarter installations.
Fluoropolymer's outstanding thermal properties offer continuous use from cryogenic temperatures up to 500°F. It is also non-aging, so brittleness is eliminated.
PTFE is translucent white in color, however, the degree of whiteness will naturally vary from lot to lot. This color variance has no bearing on the quality or physical properties of the material.
