Teflon™ FEP fluoropolymers are processed by conventional melt extrusion techniques and by injection, compression, transfer and blow molding processes. Teflon™ FEP fluoropolymers are ideal for wire coating and molding a wide variety of end use articles and components.
Teflon™ FEP offers an excellent combination of properties characteristic of all fluoropolymers; a wide service temperature range, exceptional dielectric and electrical properties, low coefficient of friction, low flammability and chemical resistance. Teflon™ FEP has a service temperature range, up to 200°C (392°F).
While Teflon™ FEP can be fabricated into solid shapes and molded articles it is best known as an industry leading product line in the wire and cable industry where it is used for wire coating and cable jacket fabrication. Teflon™ FEP offers wire and cable OEMs a high performance fluoropolymer material with excellent electrical properties, ease of processing and consistent performance.
The Teflon™ FEP product line is one the broadest in the industry. With Melt Flow Rates (MFR) from 3 to 30, and a wide range of application specific grades, Teflon™ FEP is uniquely positioned to offer exceptional performance in both general purpose and high speed wire and cable constructions.
