Rulon^® Fluoropolymers

1337 PTFE

Rulon^® 1337 is a tan material made entirely from FDA and USDA compliant components. It has excellent physical properties and is chemically compatible with most chemicals, except concentrated sulfuric acid. This offers much flexibility in wash-down environments of food and pharmaceutical processing environments.

It has slightly lower coefficient of friction than Rulon^® J, offering extended life and less abrasion with softer mating surfaces.

It is compatible with most commercially available natural lubricants for additional reduction in friction.

The Rulon^® 1337 formulation is the best FDA grade in completely dry applications.
