PTFE Coatings

PTFE (polytetrafluoro ethylene) nonstick coatings are two-coat (primer/topcoat) systems. These products have the highest operating temperature of any fluoropolymer, extremely low coefficient of friction, good abrasion resistance, and good chemical resistance.

PTFE coatings can withstand a maximum use temperature of 600°F. This coating is typically applied to a thickness of 1-3 mils.
