Properties of PTFE

Enhancing Features

PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) has the lowest coefficient of friction of any polymer, making it a popular choice for catheter applications that require lubricity.

It also features:

Temperature and chemical resistance
Biocompatibility
Precise Tolerances
High dielectric strength
Excellent insulative properties

Film-Cast Liner

PTFE Tubing

When your catheter assembly needs a lubricious inner layer, a PTFE liner is the ideal choice. But not all PTFE liner tubing is the same.
