Usa Industrials BULK-PS-PTFE-1041 Virgin Ptfe Bar

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-PTFE-1041 is a virgin-grade polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) bar stock measuring 0.625 inches thick, 1 inch wide, and 24 inches long. Virgin PTFE contains no reprocessed material, making it suitable for applications where chemical purity and consistent dielectric properties matter. This rectangular bar is commonly machined into seals, gaskets, slide pads, bushings, and custom fittings used in plumbing, chemical processing, and mechanical system assemblies. Fabricators, machinists, and trade professionals install this stock material where low friction, chemical resistance, and thermal stability are required.

This bar is suited for use in residential and commercial applications where a chemically inert, non-reactive material is needed. Typical scenarios include fabricating custom PTFE seals and thread-seal components in plumbing systems, slide bearings in mechanical assemblies, and insulating components in electrical enclosures. Its white color and rectangular shape make it straightforward to identify and orient during machining and fitting work. The 24-inch length accommodates a wide range of custom-cut part sizes from a single piece.

Key Features

• Virgin PTFE material - no regrind or reprocessed content for consistent purity
• Rectangular bar profile: 0.625 inches thick, 1 inch wide, 24 inches long
• Low coefficient of friction suited for slide pads, bushings, and bearing surfaces
• Chemically resistant to a broad range of acids, bases, and solvents
• White color for easy identification; machinable with standard shop tooling
• Tolerance of 0.060 inches for dimensional reference during fabrication

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose PTFE bar stock for machining and fabrication applications in plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and chemical-processing environments where a virgin-grade, chemically inert material is specified.

Installation Notes

This product is raw bar stock intended for machining, cutting, and fabrication rather than direct installation. Standard shop tools including band saws, lathes, and mills are appropriate for shaping PTFE. Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting, as PTFE can deform under excessive clamping pressure. Finished components machined from this stock should be installed by the licensed trade professional appropriate to the end application, such as a licensed plumber for seal and fitting work.
