PTFE O-Ring is a precision-molded sealing element made from polytetrafluoroethylene, designed to prevent leakage between two mating surfaces under pressure. Unlike standard rubber O-rings, PTFE O-Ring offers outstanding chemical resistance, a very low coefficient of friction, and excellent performance across a wide temperature range.
Our PTFE O-Ring is available in virgin PTFE, modified PTFE, and filled PTFE compounds such as carbon-filled, glass-filled, and bronze-filled grades. Each compound is selected based on the operating environment, ensuring reliable sealing performance in chemical processing, oil & gas, food & beverage, and general industrial applications.
If you are looking for related sealing products, you may also review our PTFE gaskets, PTFE sheet, and PTFE parts for complete sealing solutions.
Our PTFE O-Ring is manufactured with custom PTFE formulations tailored to your specific temperature, pressure, and chemical requirements. They offer a hardness range from 60 to 90 JIS Hs, excellent compression set and recovery for long-term sealing reliability, and are available in both standard and non-standard sizes, including large-diameter O-rings. All products are compliant with common industrial standards and suitable for OEM applications.
PTFE O-Ring is widely used in chemical processing equipment and reactors, oil & gas pipelines, valves and pumps, food & beverage systems, water treatment and steam systems, hydraulic and pneumatic components, as well as general industrial machinery and OEM assemblies. For more industry-specific solutions, please visit our applications page.
Depending on the selected compound, our PTFE O-Ring can operate within a temperature range of -50°C to +250°C and a pressure range of 0 to 35 MPa. They are suitable for strong caustics, moderate acids, chlorine, gases, water, steam, hydrocarbons, hydrogen, and aluminum fluoride — except elemental fluorine and molten sodium.
