1. CHEMICAL RESISTANCE :
PTFE is chemically inert to all chemical and solvents with the exception of molten alkali metals and strong Flourine donors. We use fine virgin PTFE powder (not any recycled material) to produce PTFE liners with the ultimate chemicals and physical properties. PTFE lined pipe work can be used with aggressive media such as HCl,H SO (Various Conc.), HNO , Hot NaOH Solutions, all chlorides-Organic & Inorganic all phenols, all sulphates etc.

2.TEMPERATURERESISTANCE:
PTFE has good flexibility and ductility in the temperature range of (-)50 to 235 C. It should be noted that PTFE can be used at higher temperature (above 200 C) and at lower temperature Below -10º C under certain conditions.

3.OPERATINGPRESSURE:
PTFE lined pipework can be used up to 20 bar/300psi.g. Full vacuum resistance depending upon the process conditions. Details to be provided by client for specific application.

4. RESISTANT TO LIGHT AND ATMOSPHERICCONDITIONS
PTFE may be used without any problem in the open air an there are no mechanical and electrical characteristics even then subject to extreme climatic conditions.

5. ELECTRICALPROPERTIES :
PTFE has good electrical insulation with a very low dielectric constant.

6.MATERIALSPECIFICATIONS :
- Pipe : ASTM-A 106 Gr.B, Seamless Sch.40 All Pipe Spools have lap joint flange at one end and fix flange at other end. Lined pipes are available up to 3 mtrs. length max. (higher length available upon request.
-Flange : Flanges made from boiler quality place material confirming to IS 2062 ASA150 class and dimension as per ANSI B 16.5 depending upon material availability.
-Collar : Collar made from boiler quality plate/plate material confirming to IS 2062 depending upon the material availability
-Fittings : Formed and fabricated from seamless C.S. Pipe/So-iron lined with PTFE/FEP/PFA.
-Lining : As perASTMF1545 / 95

7. INSPECTION & TESTING
Dimensional Check :As per product catalogue.Hydro Test : All 150 class pipes & fittings shall be tested at 25 bar after lining and 46.5 bar for 300 class pipes and fittings.
Electrostatic Test : A test voltage of 10KV to 25 KV depending upon liner thickness.
