Distributor of Rulon Plastic in Sheet, Rod, Bar and Brushing

Rulon Plastic Rulon ^® is the Saint Gobain Performance Plastics tradename for a family of reinforced proprietary

PTFE compounds. This unique family of materials offers the combination of high compressive strengths, low coefficient of friction, and excellent abrasion and corrosion resistance while running without lubrication.

These materials are used in bearing and seal applications at temperature extremes from -400°F to +500°F (-240°C to +260°C) with or without additional lubricants. Rulon ^® materials also have the unique property of no "slip stick" --- no erratic motion at low speeds.
