The F3 guiding tape made of PTFE compounds is specifically intended for use in hydraulic cylinders. The length of the cut-to-size guiding tape results in a suitable gap that allows the system pressure to pass toward the seal, taking thermal expansions into account. The resulting gap is preferably created at a 45 ° angle in order to enable a minimum guidance function under load in the direction of the gap. Alternative gap versions (straight cut, stepped cut) are possible.
The PTFE compound should be selected depending on temperature and the permissible permanent deformation ɛ.
• Vibration absorption effect.
• Very good emergency running properties in low-lube conditions.
• High load capacity (compressive strength), low wear and reduced friction due to special bronze additive in PTFE material.
• Dimensions according to ISO 10766.
• Also available as bulk material.
• Any desired nominal diameter available due to use of machining technique.
• Suitable for cylinder repairs.
• Ideally suited for large-diameters.
• Installation in closed and undercut housings.
