Good Product, Tough to Machine
Quality is top notch, but be aware you need sharp carbide tools to machine this properly. Once set up, it works great in our sliding mechanisms.

Perfect for High-Temp Bushings
Used this material for a custom bushing project in a heating element assembly. It handled the heat perfectly and the graphite fill reduced friction significantly.

Excellent Wear Resistance
We replaced metal sleeves with these PTFE tubes in a conveyor system. Noise is down and wear is minimal after three months of continuous operation.

Great Quality Material
The tube was exactly as described. Dimensions were precise and the black graphite finish looks professional. Will order again for future projects.

Fast Shipping and Custom Cut
Needed specific lengths for a repair job. Support team helped coordinate the custom cuts and shipping was faster than expected.
Q: What is the standard lead time for custom lengths?
A: Standard sizes ship within 48 hours. Custom machined lengths typically require 3-5 business days for processing.
Q: Is this graphite-filled PTFE electrically conductive?
A: Yes, the graphite filling provides slight electrical conductivity compared to virgin PTFE, which helps dissipate static.
Q: Can I cut this tube with a standard hacksaw?
A: While possible, we recommend using carbide-tipped tools for a cleaner cut and to prevent material deformation.
Q: Do you offer bulk discounts for large orders?
A: Yes, please contact our sales team directly through the contact form for pricing on bulk quantities.
Q: Is this material safe for food contact applications?
A: No, this specific graphite-filled grade is intended for industrial mechanical use only and is not FDA compliant for food contact.
