2. Heat-shrink tubing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-shrink_tubing

   PTFE (fluoropolymer) tubes have a wide operating temperature range (-55 to 175 °C), a low coefficient of friction, and high resistance to chemicals and punctures. [ 7 ] Viton , another fluoropolymer with high chemical resistance, is widely used in hydraulic equipment.

3. Polytetrafluoroethylene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene

   Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene, and has numerous applications because it is chemically inert. [3] The commonly known brand name of PTFE-based composition is Teflon by Chemours, [4] a spin-off from DuPont, which originally invented the compound in 1938. [4]

   Tests showed the substance was resistant to corrosion from most acids, bases and solvents and had better high temperature stability than any other plastic. By early 1941, a crash program was making substantial quantities of PTFE for the Manhattan Project. [1] [2] [3] [4]

   Tungsten is often used in high temperature applications as well as for filaments in electron/ion optics. It becomes brittle from work hardening when mechanically deformed, or subjected to very high temperatures. Molybdenum and tantalum are useful for high temperature applications. [3] Titanium and niobium are good materials.

6. Rulon (plastic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rulon_(plastic)

   Rulon is the trade name for a family of PTFE plastics produced by Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics. Rulon plastics are known for their low coefficient of friction, excellent abrasion resistance, wide range of operating temperatures, and chemical inertness. Common applications for Rulon include seals, piston rings, bearings, and electrical ...

7. Thread seal tape - Wikipedia

   PTFE tape used for different sized fittings PTFE tape for natural gas. There are two US standards for determining the quality of any thread seal tape. MIL-T-27730A (an obsolete military specification still commonly used in industry in the US) requires a minimum thickness of 3.5 mils and a minimum PTFE purity of 99%. [3]
