PTFE Coating
The original non-stick industrial coating.
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) based Teflon coatings provide outstandingly low friction, great non-stick performance, and corrosion protection for a wide range of industrial applications.
What is PTFE?
PTFE was the first fluoropolymer to be invented and turned into a coating — PTFE based coatings are the most common coatings in the consumer market: i.e. frying pans, baking trays, anti-galling fastener coatings, and are generally what comes to mind when people think “Teflon.” Our range of PTFE based coatings excel in high temperature applications like cooking and sealing, sliding applications like hoppers and chutes, and general purpose applications where a balance of properties is required.
PTFE allows for an extremely low coefficient of friction. It is ideal for reducing product build-up, improving cleanability and extending the life of metal components.
Best Suited For
Food processing & bakery equipment
General manufacturing
Applications where best sliding performance is required
Reducing friction on moving parts
For companies like Peratex, PTFE is often the first recommendation when customers need to reduce sticking, improve cleanability or protect metal parts from harsh operating conditions. It is especially effective in food processing, packaging, manufacturing and chemical industries where reliability and consistency is essential.
Common Components That Can Be PTFE Coated
Many metal parts can be coated, including but not limited to:
HEAT SEAL BARS
CHUTES
BAKING TRAYS
PUMPS
ROLLERS
CONVEYER COMPONENTS
Why Industries Choose PTFE
PTFE remains one of the world’s most widely used industrial coating materials because it combines several valuable characteristics in a single coating:
Exceptional non-stick performance
High heat resistance
Excellent protection from corrosion
Low friction for smoother operation
Easy maintenance and cleaning
Long-lasting protection for industrial components
