Vertec™ 1006
- Chemical Family
- Fluoropolymers
Vertec™ 1006 is a carbon fiber filled PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) material. It exhibits improved creep and wear resistance. Increased thermal conductivity and low coefficient of friction ensure low wear rate even under dry running conditions. It is suitable for gaskets, valve seals, packings, bearings, and piston rings.
