Filled PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) Granules are composite materials created by blending PTFE with various fillers, such as glass, carbon, or bronze, to enhance its properties. These granules are valued for their improved mechanical strength, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity compared to pure PTFE. They are necessitated by industries that demand high-performance materials capable of enduring extreme conditions, such as chemical, oil and gas, automotive, and electrical applications. The end-use scope of filled PTFE granules is vast; they are used to manufacture seals, gaskets, bushings, and other components that require durability and reliability.
