SealsPTFE Slide BearingsHigh performance seals can be designed andmanufactured by AFT Fluorotec wherever durability andresistance to chemicals and temperature fluctuations arethe norm. Seals can be provided in PTFE and filled PTFEmaterials designed to give increased performance.PTFE slide bearings are used to solve the problemsof movement caused by temperature change anddifferential material thermal expansion, settlementand natural forces encountered by high winds andeven seismic activity.Chemical resistanceLow wear and low frictionExtreme temperature rangeHigh pressure applicationsHigh surface speeds.AFT Fluorotec can manufacture seals for most applications.PTFE materials can be selected to meet the particularapplication and the design can be tailored to suit.Seal TypesElastomeric Energiser MaterialSelection depends wholly on the service conditions,specifically temperature and media.Pipe linesHeat exchangersPressure vesselsStorage tanksIndustrial machineryBuildings and bridges.A PTFE slide bearing normally comprises of anupper element and a lower element, which operateby sliding against one another. The upper elementis generally larger than the lower element by theamount of the anticipated movement. This ensuresthat the lower element is subjected to uniform loadthroughout motion and excludes foreign matter fromthe sliding interface.We offer PTFE slide bearings in a range ofconfigurations although each is designed to suit thespecific application. A typical slide bearing elementconsists of 2.5mm thick reinforced or virgin PTFEhot cure factory bonded under controlled conditionsof temperature and pressure to a 3mm thick steelbacking plate for welding to the installation.Alternative material thicknesses can be supplied.Substantial deviations from parallel or rotationalmovement of the structure can be accommodatedby incorporating an elastomeric element within thePTFE slide bearing.PTFE slide bearings are able to operate through atemperature range from:-195 C (-319 F) to 260 C (500 F).For special considerations or difficult conditions,please contact us for assistance.Options include Viton, Nitrile, Silicone, EPDM andPerfluoroelastomer also known as Kalrez.Spring Energiser MaterialThese would typically be Stainless Steel but for moreaggressive environments or to meet NACE approvals,Elgiloy, Hastelloy and Inconel may be selected.Jacket material is not restricted to just PTFECommonly Virgin, Carbon, Graphite, Glass/Moly andBronze filled PTFE would be used but for applicationsusing non hardened running surfaces Ekonol filled PTFEwould be recommended.There are many special blends of PTFE forspecific high performance uses and UHMWPEis also commonly used.
