Fluon® PTFE G155

AGC Chemicals Americas, Inc. Fluon® PTFE G155 is a virgin granular PTFE homopolymer. It is a fine powder grade that can be used for molding, but is mainly intended as a feedstock for making filled compounds. Its properties allow for minimal insulation thickness while also tolerating a wide range of temperatures (-180°C to 260°C) compared to other insulators.
