1. Introduction to Teflon O-Rings
Teflon O-rings, manufactured by Shree Shakti Industries (SSI), represent the pinnacle of high-performance sealing solutions across various industries. These versatile components are essential for applications requiring exceptional chemical resistance, temperature tolerance, and low friction properties.
What Are Teflon O-Rings?
Teflon O-rings, or PTFE O-rings, are sealing components made from Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene. Unlike traditional rubber O-rings, SSI’s PTFE O-rings offer:
- Exceptional chemical resistance
- Wide temperature range (-200°C to 260°C)
- Low friction coefficient
- High durability and wear resistance
- FDA compliance for food-grade applications
These unique properties make SSI brand Teflon O-rings ideal for demanding applications where standard rubber seals would fail.2. Types of SSI Teflon O-Rings
