PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) lined carbon steel pipes combine the strength of carbon steel with the chemical resistance and non-stick properties of PTFE. This combination makes them ideal for handling corrosive and high-purity applications.

What is PTFE lined carbon steel pipe?

  1. Definition:
    PTFE lined carbon steel pipes are standard carbon steel pipes lined internally with a layer of PTFE. The lining protects the steel from corrosive substances while leveraging the strength and durability of the steel exterior.
  2. Chemical Resistance:
    PTFE lining provides excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including strong acids, bases, and organic solvents. This makes these pipes suitable for industries like chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemicals.
  3. Temperature and Pressure Tolerance:
    PTFE lined pipes can operate under high temperatures (up to 260°C) and maintain structural integrity under moderate pressure, making them ideal for transporting hot or reactive fluids.
  4. Applications:
    These pipes are used for transporting aggressive fluids, slurries, or gases in industries such as water treatment, food processing, and oil and gas.
  5. Non-stick and Low Friction:
    The non-stick properties of PTFE prevent material build-up inside the pipe, reducing maintenance and improving flow efficiency.
  6. Durability:
    The carbon steel exterior provides mechanical strength and impact resistance, while the PTFE lining ensures long-term corrosion resistance.
  7. Easy Installation and Versatility:
    PTFE lined carbon steel pipes are compatible with various connection types and can be customized to fit complex piping systems.

This hybrid solution offers reliability and longevity in demanding environments.
