Rulon Plastic Sheet

Rulon is readily machinable in a manner similar to tfe and may be surface treated for bonding.

Rulon plastic sheet.

These sheets are manufactured from rulon ptfe a ptfe material that s been modified with an epoxy coated fiber. Rulon j is an all plastic reinforced ptfe with lower friction and wear compared to other reinforced ptfe compounds. Rulon has a practically universal chemical inertness. With the high cost of fluorocarbons reducing the amount of material needed substantially.

Rulon j can be used against nonferrous and nonmetallic surfaces such as mild steel 316 stainless steel aluminum brass and other plastics. Harder running surfaces are better. Rulon is available in numerous standard forms such as extruded rod tubing skived tape molded rods and tubes sheets and shapes molded to specifications. These easy to machine sheets are nonabsorbent so they won t swell when exposed to water.

Our clients depend on rulon lr s durability and dependability for high pressure gaskets slide pads compressor components and light to medium duty structural applications.

Mild steel is acceptable. In addition to having the superior chemical and temperature resistance of ptfe they have excellent impact resistance and a super slippery surface that resists wear.

Rulon is a family of proprietary homogeneous materials mostly of ptfe based resins engineered and developed with specific custom applications in mind. Chemical resistant ptfe sheets manufactured from rulon ptfe a ptfe material that s modified with epoxy coated fiber for a super slippery impact resistant surface that resists wear.
