 The increasing emphasis
upon safety in the aerospace and aircraft industry has resulted
in an increasing demand for all PTFE products.
The importances of fire resistant materials where human life and
intricate machinery must function, as a reliable unit is evident
when tragic events occur. PTFE products are fire resistant. They
are non-flammable in a normal atmosphere. In a highly oxygenated
atmosphere, glass fiber reinforced PTFE burns at a rate of less
than 3/10” or 7.62 MM per second.
AFC products
differ from comparable competitive products only in regard to
quality control. They are fabricated to exacting standards.
All AFC products are involved to some degree in the aerospace
and aircraft industry, primarily for reasons of health and safety.
These products possess a unique combination of the great many
desirable
properties, which follow:
- Temperature
Resistivity (-400°F to +600°F or -240°C
to 316°C)
- Smooth non-stick
surface
- Chemical
resistivity
- Mechanical
strength
- Durability
- Controlled
Dk (microwave)
- Low dissipation
factor (microwave)
- High cold-flow
(unsintered products)
- Semi-conductivity
