Remington Industries' PTFE tubing is a flexible, non-shrink PTFE tube built for wire and cable protection in high-temperature and chemically demanding environments. Where standard tubing materials break down under heat or exposure, PTFE holds its shape and insulating properties, making it a reliable choice for demanding industrial, electrical, and OEM applications.
Also Known as Teflon Tubing
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) is the material itself, and Teflon is the widely recognized brand name most commonly associated with it, so you may see this same product referred to as Teflon tubing or Teflon tube. Some also know it by its related product form, PTFE sleeving, though PTFE tubing is the more accurate description for the products in this category.
Key Properties & Applications
As a fluoropolymer tubing, PTFE resists heat, chemicals, and abrasion better than most standard insulating materials, and stays flexible across a wide temperature range. It's produced as PTFE extruded tubing, giving it a smooth, consistent wall thickness suited to precision applications. In electronics and wire harness work, thin-wall versions are sometimes called PTFE spaghetti tubing. It also holds up well in high temperature tubing applications and, in some routing and instrumentation setups, is used in a role similar to a PTFE conduit, protecting a wire or cable run through tight or exposed spaces.
What Is PTFE Tubing?
PTFE tubing is a non-shrink, flexible tube made from polytetrafluoroethylene, used to insulate and protect wires and cables in environments where heat resistance, chemical resistance, or both are required. Unlike heat shrink tubing, it doesn't need heat to install, it simply slides over the wire or cable and holds its shape.
