Vertec™ 1011
- Chemical Family
- Fluoropolymers
Vertec™ 1011 is a polymer filled PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) material. It exhibits good sealability, very low coefficient of friction and low wear rate under dry running conditions. Its non-abrasive nature makes it an ideal sealing material for use against soft metal surfaces in dynamic applications. It has been met with great success in high speed, high temperature compressor applications. It is widely used for piston cups and oxygen compressors.
