Usa Industrials BULK-PS-PTFE-986 Virgin Ptfe Sheet

Product Description

The USA INDUSTRIALS BULK-PS-PTFE-986 is a virgin-grade polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plastic sheet used in sealing, lining, gasketing, and fabrication applications across plumbing, chemical handling, and mechanical trades. Measuring 1/32 inch thick, 36 inches wide, and 3 feet long, this sheet is cut to a standard format that accommodates a wide range of shop or field fabrication tasks. The virgin PTFE grade ensures maximum chemical resistance and electrical insulation properties, with a thickness tolerance of plus or minus 0.005 inch. The sheet weighs approximately 0.37 pounds, making it easy to handle and cut to size on the job.

This PTFE sheet is suited for residential and commercial applications where chemical inertness, low friction, and high-temperature resistance are required. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors commonly use PTFE sheet stock to fabricate custom gaskets, thread seals, flange liners, and valve seats. Its white color allows for visual inspection after cutting and trimming. The standardized 36-inch by 3-foot format reduces material waste when fabricating multiple smaller pieces from a single sheet.

Key Features

• Virgin PTFE material grade delivers consistent chemical resistance and dielectric properties
• 1/32 inch thickness with a tight plus or minus 0.005 inch tolerance for precise gasket and seal fabrication
• 36-inch width by 3-foot length provides ample stock for multiple cuts per sheet
• White color allows visual confirmation of cuts, edges, and finished part dimensions
• Lightweight at 0.37 pounds for easy transport and bench work

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose PTFE sheet stock for fabricating gaskets, liners, seals, and related components in plumbing, HVAC, chemical, and mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

PTFE sheet stock is typically cut and fabricated by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or mechanical contractors using standard sheet cutters, hole punches, or rotary tools. Ensure all system pressure is relieved and lines are depressurized before removing existing gaskets or seals for replacement. Follow applicable IPC and IFGC guidelines when using PTFE materials in gas or fluid system joints. Avoid exposing cut edges to open flame, as PTFE decomposition byproducts can be hazardous.
