Superior medical devices require superior coatings.
Our proprietary PTFE Natural® coated hypotubes offer unmatched benefits.
Low Coefficient of Friction
PTFE Natural® coatings provide a coefficient of friction generally in the range of 0.05 to 0.20, depending on the load and sliding speed.
HEAT-RESISTANCE
PTFE Natural® coatings can operate continuously at temperatures up to 500°F (260°C) with intermittent processes up to 550°F (288°C) and can be used for intermittent service up to 600°F with adequate ventilation.
Non-Stick
Very few solid substances will permanently adhere to a PTFE Natural® coating. While tacky materials may show some adhesion, almost all substances release easily.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Chemical environments usually do not affect a PTFE Natural® coating. Only molten alkali metals and highly reactive fluorinating agents are known to affect this coating.
ROBUST COATING
The proprietary PTFE Natural® coating process enhances the substrate bonding surface to provide optimum lubricity without flaking or cracking.
NON-WETTING
Since PTFE Natural® finishes are both hydrophobic and oleophobic, cleanup is easier and more thorough.
