What is PTFE Coating?

Polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) is a tetrafluoroethylene synthetic fluoropolymer with various applications. It is a fluorocarbon element as it is a large molecular compound made up entirely of carbon and fluorine. It is hydrophobic: no water or water-containers react with PTFE, because of the high electronegativity of fluorine, fluorocarbons which posses London dispersion forces. It has one of the lowest friction coefficients of all solids and is used in pans and other cookwares as a non-stick coating. It shows vey less reactivity, partially due to the strength of C-F bonds and is therefore mostly used for storage of reactive and corrosive chemicals in containers and pipes.

Where PTFE Coating Use?

PTFE is extensively used as a coating for Fasteners used in Oil & Gas, Marine & Offshore applications. PTFE coated fasteners stands exceptional to Salt Spray Test. It has outstanding release capabilities and can withstand a maximum use temperature of 600°F, higher than any fluoropolymer. This coating is typically applied to a thickness of 1-3 mils. Ptfe is also commonly referred by their tradename/brands, teflon, xylan, etc. These fluoro poly makes excellent choice for agressive environment. Ptfe or teflon coated fasteners are widely used in onshore and offshore engineering applications.

Why to use PTFE Coating?

PTFE coated fasteners have a layer of PTFE applied to their surfaces. The coating serves several purposes:

  • Reduced Friction: PTFE is known for its low friction coefficient. Coating fasteners with PTFE helps reduce friction between the threads, making it easier to tighten or loosen them.
  • Corrosion Resistance: PTFE provides a protective barrier against corrosion.
  • Chemical Resistance: PTFE is highly resistant to various chemicals, which adds another layer of protection against corrosive substances that the fasteners might come into contact with.
  • Nonstick Properties: The nonstick nature of PTFE helps prevent materials from adhering to the fastener's surface, which can be beneficial in applications where cleanliness and smooth operation are essential.
  • Temperature Resistance: PTFE can withstand a wide range of temperatures, making it suitable for applications that involve exposure to both high and low temperatures.
