Ensinger TECASINT 8001 Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) + Polyimide, 20% (PI)

TECASINT is a range of non-melting high temperature polyimides characterized by high strength over a wide range of temperatures, good long term thermal stability, minimal thermal expansion and excellent wear resistance among other things. The TECASINT 2000 series offers these enhanced thermal properties along with lower moisture absorption, a higher degree of toughness, and better machining properties. TECASINT 2011 is unfilled, while TECASINT 2021 contains 15% graphite which offer improved wear resistance and a lower coefficient of friction. TECASINT 2000 series with their superior physical properties, are ideal for application in the aerospace, nuclear, automotive, electrical/electronics, and chemical processing industries.Main FeaturesAntiadhesiveStrongGood chemical resistanceVery good UV and weather resistanceFlame retardant according to UL94 V-0Very toughVery good electrical insulationGood slid and wear propertiesEasily machinedApplicationsMechanical engineeringFittingsCryogenicsMedical technologyConveyor technologyElectrical engineeringFood technologyTextile industryPreferred FieldsValve seats, piston guides, silding rails, ring seals, bearing discs, bearingsInformation Provided by Ensinger, Inc.
