Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) seals and piston rings have started to replace their carbon counterpart as PTFE seals and rings offer greater durability, have a longer operating life, and can be operated at various pressures, velocities and temperatures.
PTFE seals and rings are becoming more common in a variety of applications and industries because of the unique advantages they offer.
PTFE Piston Rings and Guide Rings (Rider rings) for dry-running applications are currently a focal point of technical development.
They significantly reduce a machine’s operating costs and, in today’s increasingly environmentally aware society, make it easier for operators to fulfill stricter environmental legislation.
