Carlock Sealing's 20% Carbon Fiber filled PTFE is engineered for the most demanding dynamic sealing applications. By incorporating high-strength carbon fibers into the PTFE matrix, we create a material with exceptional wear resistance and the ability to withstand heavy loads with minimal deformation. Ideal for both dry and wet environments, Carlock Sealing’s carbon-reinforced PTFE is the industry standard for high-performance piston rings and valve seats.
Technical Disclaimer: Carbon fiber is electrically conductive; therefore, this material is not suitable for applications requiring electrical insulation. While highly resistant to most chemicals, please consult Carlock Sealing’s technical team for compatibility with extremely strong oxidizing agents.
FAQ Section
Q: When should I choose Carbon Fiber filled PTFE over Bronze filled?
A: Carlock Sealing recommends Carbon Fiber filled PTFE for applications involving steam or chemicals that might corrode bronze, and for environments where lower weight and high wear resistance are required.
Q: Is 20% Carbon Fiber PTFE abrasive to mating surfaces?
A: While carbon fiber is harder than PTFE, it is less abrasive than glass fiber. Carlock Sealing ensures a high-quality surface finish on all machined parts to minimize counter-surface wear.
Q: Does Carlock Sealing provide custom-machined piston rings in this material?
A: Yes. We specialize in CNC turning custom piston rings, rider bands, and high-pressure seals from 20% Carbon Fiber PTFE without any mold fees.
Q:How do I obtain the SGS report for my order?
A: You can request the specific SGS material test report directly from the Carlock Sealing technical support team. We provide these documents to ensure full compliance with your project's quality assurance (QA) protocols.
