High performance materials
Engineered Polymers Limited offer a wide range of common and uncommon fluoropolymers and thermoplastics.
We specialise in offering high performance plastics such as PCTFE (Kel-F), PEEK (virgin and filled grades), PTFE (virgin and filled grades), PFA, FEP, ETFE together with a large variety of more common materials such as Nylon, Acetal together with ultra-high performance materials including Fluorosint and Vespel.
Additional materials are available – please contact us to discuss any specific requirements further.
Whatever your material needs, we are confident we will be able to meet your expectations and offer a materiel which will best suit your requirements.
PTFE
- Virgin or modified grades for enhanced properties
- Low friction
- Non-stick (self lubricating)
- Low flammability
- High chemical resistance
- Highly flexible
- Typical max temp capability 260 deg C
PCTFE
- Wide temperature capability (-260 to +150 deg C).
- Low permeability
- Harder than PTFE, greater wear resistance
- Excellent chemical and radiation resistance
PEEK
- Outstanding wear characteristics
- Excellent creep resistance
- High temperature capability
- Superb strength to weight ratio
- Radiation and chemical resistance
PFA
- Chemically stable
- Low friction properties
- Reduced creep
- Good temperature performance
- Many properties similar to PTFE
FEP
- Similarities to PTFE
- Pure carbon fluorine structure – fully fluorinated
- High flexibility
- Specified as alternative to PTFE for given applications
- Excellent corrosion resistance
ETFE
- High Mechanical Strength
- High Chemical Resistance
- Superior thermal and electrical properties
