PTFE - Extruded Products
Extruded PTFE Pipes
HI-TECH offers PTFE rigid pipes with the best quality and finish. The pipes are used in various industrial applications such as food and beverage, oil and gas, steam engineering and chemicals and in the process industry. The tubes can be supplied in their raw form, and are also used in house for machining stock to be machined for our customers.
A core example of the application of the extruded PTFE tubes is when they are used in their raw shape and are used as a barrier and fitted over an M.S. or S.S. pipe to avoid corrosion on the body of the steel pipes.
Standard available sizes:
| Available Sizes: | Outer Diameter | Inner Diameter | Lengths |
| 20 mm up to 70 mm | 10 mm up to 50 mm | 300 and 1000 mm are standard lengths |
NOTE: Custom sizes / diameters and lengths can be made upon request.
Extruded PTFE Rods
Extrusion is a process where the focus is on a high-volume manufacturing yield, which includes melting and forming the raw plastic powder / granules into a continuous profile.
Extruded PTFE rods are made in the same way. This method is great as it saves time and allows more flexibility to control specific lengths required.
These PTFE rods are further used as machining stock to make various components, some of the most common ones being rod oil seals, piston seals, screws, and even laboratory equipment due to its non-reactive properties.
Standard available compositions:
- 15% & 25% Glass
- 25% & 35% Carbon
- 15% Graphite
- 40% & 60% Bronze
- PEEK
- 55% Bronze + 5% Molybdenum Sulphide (MoS2)
- 15% Glass + 5% Molybdenum Sulphide (MoS2)

Standard available sizes:-
| Standard available sizes: | Diameters | Lengths |
| 4 mm upto 250 mm | 1000 and 1200 mm |
NOTE: Custom sizes / diameters and lengths can be made upon request.
Skived PTFE Sheets
Various forms of Gaskets can be made from PTFE skived sheets using water jet, laser cutting and pressed parts used in various industrial applications such as electrical, chemical, Food & Beverage and many more. PTFE sheets are inert, non-toxic and non-reactive and are also approved by the FDA, which makes them perfect for critical and clean use in the Pharmaceutical and F & B industry respectively.
Another important use of PTFE Sheets is to separate conductive plates in capacitors. PTFE Sheets are inventoried in various sizes and thicknesses for our in-house machining of components or for the direct supply to OEMS and other companies for controlled machining of components.
Standard available sizes:
| Available Sizes: | Thickness | Sheet dimensions (width) |
| 0.1 mm up to 5 mm | 300 mm | |
| 600 mm | ||
| 1000 mm |
NOTE: Custom sizes can be cut up on request
PTFE Flexible Tubes
We at HI-TECH stock various sizes with different wall thicknesses in flexible PTFE tubes which are ideal for medical, electrical and automotive components. These are thin walled tubes which are extruded to the perfect sizing meant for such applications.
These tubes are great for applications suitable for carrying very corrosive and/or reactive fluids due to their high chemical resistance. The tubes are also used in heat applications as PTFE can withstand a range from temperatures from -260 degrees C up to +260 degrees C.
Another major application for the tubes is in the electrical industry where it is used for insulation.
Standard available sizes:
| Available Sizes: | Inner Diameter | Wall Thickness | Length |
| 1.6 mm to 25 mm | 0.8 mm to 1.5 mm | 1 meter to 50 meters or as per your requirement |
