Fluon® PTFE G201
- Chemical Family
- Fluoropolymers
AGC Chemicals Americas, Inc. Fluon® PTFE G201 is a virgin sintered granular PTFE homopolymer. It is intended for the extrusion premium quality rods up to approximately 25mm diameter and tubes up to approximately 10mm wall thickness. Resin properties keep the insulation thickness to a minimum while tolerating a wider range of temperatures (-180 °C to 260 °C) than other insulators.
