• RS Pro Rigid Plastic PTFE Sheets
• RS Pro high-quality PTFE rigid plastic sheets are sold in a variety of sizes and thicknesses.
• About Rigid Plastic Sheets
• Rigid plastic sheets are sheets made of plastic or plastic-like materials with excellent strength and durability. It can be cut to any size and is sold in a wide range of sizes and thicknesses. Rigid plastic sheets can be cut or machined into parts after purchase and used to manufacture products from a wide range of industries. Each type of plastic has different characteristics, and certain plastics are useful for certain applications.
• About PTFE Plastics
• PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene, also known as Teflon) is a semicrystalline thermoplastic resin. It is not very strong or rigid, but it has many other unique characteristics that can be used as a high-performance product. The main characteristics of PTFE plastics are high thermal stability, excellent chemical resistance and excellent sliding properties.　Parts made of PTFE are less prone to friction and heat, extend the life of the part, and reduce maintenance costs. The very high sliding properties of PTFE mean that the surfaces slide well against each other with low friction resistance (low friction coefficient). Since it reduces wear, it is ideal for parts such as bearings.
• Features and Advantages: Extremely high chemical resistance, hydrothermal resistance, high heat resistance, high melting point, operating temperature range: -200 → +260 °C, maximum 300 °C (short time) Excellent sliding property with low friction coefficient, non-stick surface, no adhesion of material. PTFE is difficult to bond and weld. High thermal expansion rate (ratio of material to expand in response to temperature change) Relatively low strength, low rigidity Excellent ultraviolet resistance and weather resistance Excellent electrical insulation properties Low dielectric constant flame retardancy and self-extinguishing V-0 gamma radiation-sensitive non-melting Uses: PTFE plastic sheeting has excellent sliding properties, high thermal stability and chemical resistance, and is suitable for a wide range of industries including transport and transportation, pump and instrument construction, electrical engineering, food processing and medicine, aircraft and aerospace, and laser technology. With unique properties, PTFE plastics can be used to produce parts for slide applications that are subject to high levels of chemical stress. The following parts are manufactured from this plastic:

• Questions and Answers
• What tools can I use to cut this plastic sheet?　The choice of tool used to cut this plastic depends on the thickness of the sheet being cut. Thin sheets of plastic can be cut using a sharp utility knife. Thick sheets can be cut using various types of saws, such as fine-bladed handsaws, bow saws, electric table saws, band saws, round saws, and jigsaws. The upper teeth of the saw blade should be sharpened and evenly spaced in height and shape to prevent cracks and chips in the plastic. "No-melt" blades are recommended because friction from sawing can cause the blades to become hot and melt plastic. If you are using regular blades, it is recommended that you allow time between cuts to cool the blades.
