Teflon ™ PTFE 6C X is a polytetrafluoroethylene fine powder resin used primarily for paste extrusion. Teflon ™ PTFE 6C X offers the excellent combination of properties typical of Teflon ™ fluoroplastic resins:

• Non-aging characteristics

• Chemical inertness to nearly all industrial chemicals and solvents

• 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 6C X is designed for processing at medium to high reduction ratios (250:1 to 2000:1). It is particularly suitable for production of wire coating, jacketing, and tubing at fast sintering rates.

Teflon ™ PTFE 6C X meets the requirements of ASTM D4895, Type I, Grade 3, Class E.

Typical Applications
Teflon ™ PTFE 6C X is mainly used for wire and cable insulation and tubes with thin wall tubing, such as spaghetti tubing.
