Teflon® PTFE 60 X
Polytetrafluoroethylene
Product Description:
DuPont™ Teflon® PTFE 60 X is a polytetrafluoroethylene fine powder resin used primarily for paste extrusion. Teflon® PTFE 60 X offers the excellent combination of properties typical of the Teflon® fluoroplastic resins:

chemical inertness to nearly all industrial chemicals and solvents

superior in-use thermal stability (low thermal instability index)

exceptional dielectric properties, stable with frequency and temperature

toughness and flexibility

low coefficient of friction

non-stick characteristics

negligible moisture absorption

excellent weather resistance

service temperature up to 260 °C (500 °F)

useful properties at -240 °C (-400 °F)

moderate stiffness and high ultimate elongation


Teflon® PTFE 60 X is designed for processing at low to medium reduction ratios of 10:1 to 300:1. It is designed to facilitate the production of high-quality, low-density tape and beading.

Teflon® PTFE 60 X meets the requirements of ASTM D 4895-10, Type I, Grade 2, Class A.
