Choosing a PTFE grade starts with the operating conditions, not the filler name alone. Compare the material composition with the load, sliding speed, temperature, chemical environment and mating surface of your application.
APAMEYA is the manufacturer; APAFLON® identifies its PTFE material brand. The grades below identify material compositions, not finished-part dimensions or stock availability.
Composition: 100% PTFE.
Use this unfilled grade as a reference when comparing the requirements of your application with filled alternatives. Food-contact, electrical or other regulated requirements must be checked against the documentation for the specified material and intended use.
Composition: 25% carbon + 75% PTFE.
Assess this carbon-filled grade against the actual load, motion, mating surface, temperature and chemical environment. The filler name alone does not establish the electrical or mechanical performance required by a particular application.
Composition: 15% glass fibre + 85% PTFE.
Consider this grade where hardness, wear and dimensional behaviour under load are relevant. Evaluate the mating surface, lubrication and chemical exposure together with the operating conditions before selecting the material.
Composition: 40% bronze + 60% PTFE.
Evaluate this specific bronze-filled composition for the intended part geometry, load, speed, mating surface, lubrication and chemical environment. Technical values for a different bronze percentage must not be used as substitutes.
No grade is universally the best. Final suitability must be evaluated for the actual application; a general comparison does not replace the relevant technical data or application assessment.
An APAFLON code identifies the material grade. Specify the product form, dimensions, tolerances and quantity separately. For example, “APAFLON 202501, rod, diameter 40 mm × length 500 mm, 10 pieces” is an enquiry format, not a stock or delivery promise.
Send drawings and supporting documents to satis@apameya.com, including your company name and part reference.
No. The selection depends on the complete operating conditions and the properties required from the part, not simply on whether a filler is present.
Not solely on the basis of the filler name. Check the exact composition, relevant technical data and application requirements before making a substitution.
Yes. Provide the part drawing or dimensions and the operating conditions so that material options can be assessed during the quotation process.
