PTFE Rods & Bush

INSULAC A PTFE bush, also known as a PTFE sleeve or PTFE bearing, is a cylindrical component. It is used as a bearing or bushing in mechanical systems where a rotating or sliding motion occurs between two components.

This is the most common shape of PTFE bushings. It is a straight, cylindrical sleeve with a central bore through. They are suitable for applications where rotational or linear movement is required. They are often used in machinery, automotive components, and hydraulic systems.

Molded PTFE bushes are typically manufactured through a molding process which allows for better control over the material's orientation, resulting in improved mechanical properties such as strength and wear resistance. It involves compressing PTFE powder (typically blended with additives, pigments or fillers) into the desired shape.
