WD-40 44743 WD-40 Specialist Anti Friction Dry PTFE Lubricant 250ml & Specialist Contact Cleaner 400ml

Product Information

PTFE tubes are used in gas-gas heat exchangers in gas cleaning of waste incinerators. Unit power capacity is typically several megawatts.

Teflon-coated bullets are coated with PTFE to reduce wear on the rifling of firearms that uncoated projectiles would cause. PTFE itself does not give a projectile an armor-piercing property.

The Properties of PTFE Lubrication

It is used as a coating for medical and healthcare applications formulated to provide strength and heat resistance to surgical devices and other medical equipment. [48]

PTFE is widely used as a thread seal tape in plumbing applications, largely replacing paste thread dope.Its extremely high bulk resistivity makes it an ideal material for fabricating long-life electrets, the electrostatic analogues of permanent magnets.

In optical radiometry, sheets of PTFE are used as measuring heads in spectroradiometers and broadband radiometers (e.g., illuminance meters and UV radiometers) due to PTFE's capability to diffuse a transmitting light nearly perfectly. Moreover, optical properties of PTFE stay constant over a wide range of wavelengths, from UV down to near infrared. In this region, the ratio of its regular transmittance to diffuse transmittance is negligibly small, so light transmitted through a diffuser (PTFE sheet) radiates like Lambert's cosine law. Thus PTFE enables cosinusoidal angular response for a detector measuring the power of optical radiation at a surface, e.g. in solar irradiance measurements. This High Performance PTFE Lubricant can be used for a range of applications. It keeps tools and machinery working smoothly, and improves the life of everything from garden implements to car parts.

PTFE is commonly used in aftermarket add-on mouse feet for gaming mice to reduce friction of the mouse against the mouse pad, resulting in a smoother glide.

What Are The Advantages Of PTFE Lubricants?

Blake, Mariah. "Welcome to Beautiful Parkersburg, West Virginia Home to one of the most brazen, deadly corporate gambits in U.S. history". HuffPost . Retrieved 31 August 2015. Our anti friction dry PTFE spray lubricant works through a range of temperatures, from -45°C to 260°C, and is safe to use on metals, glass and plastics. However, finding the perfect lubricant is something you must deal with yourself. Especially, choosing between PTFE lubricant and silicone is a troublesome thing for many people. Most cases of polymer fume fever in humans occur due to smoking PTFE-contaminated tobacco, [64] although cases have occurred in people who have welded near PTFE components. [64] PTFE-coated cookware is unlikely to reach dangerous temperatures with normal use, as meat is usually fried between 204 and 232°C (399 and 450°F), and most cooking oils (except refined safflower and avocado oils) start to smoke before a temperature of 260°C (500°F) is reached. A 1973 study by DuPont's Haskell Laboratory found that a 4-hour exposure to the fumes emitted by PTFE cookware heated to 280°C (536°F) was lethal for parakeets, although that was a higher temperature than the 260°C (500°F) required for fumes from pyrolyzed butter to be lethal to the birds.
