STYLE 1500
Virgin PTFE Sheet

 

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION / APPLICATION


PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is a high molecular weight polymer and one of the most versatile plastics known to man. Style 1500 virgin PTFE sheet can handle virtually all chemicals in the 0-14 pH range with the exception of molten alkali metals and elemental fluorine. It is suitable for service at temperatures from the cryogenic range up to 500°F.

Style 1500 virgin PTFE sheet is particularly recommended for applications in the food and beverage industry where high purity materials are required. It is also used where contamination or discoloration of flow media cannot be tolerated.
