PTFE (teflon) Machining at East Coast MFG
June 19, 2009
Take a look at an example of some PTFE (teflon) turning we do at East Coast Precision Manufacturing. The part you see here is thin walled. It features a OD grooving with a notched feature on one end.
PTFE is often used in the electrical and chemical industries. It is very chemical resitant, stable, and a good insulator.
Teflon machining is one of our core competencies here at East Coast Precision. We have been working with it for a long time and look foward to quoting on your teflon work today!
Machined Polysulfone
June 17, 2009
This part is made out of Polysulfone. Polysulfone is known for being tough, wear resiting, and high temperature stability. It is also a dielectric material that can be used in capacitors. Dielectric means that it will not transmit electricity.
This part is milled in the milling department here at East Coast Precision. It is approximately 1.5 inches square. It features a milled out body, some threaded holes and a polished top. Due to the geometry, the part is actually able to spring a little bit.
Turned Delrin-AF
June 5, 2009
This part is made out a Delrin-AF, a blend of delrin and teflon. The most striking feature is the helical slot that is machined on the OD. The slot width is tightly toleranced at ±.00025. It also features an OD groove and counterbores on each end. Our machining process allows us to produce these parts with minimal to no burrs so secondary operations are not needed in most cases.
