Novum MS 01: Glass Fiber, Carbon & Graphite Filled PTFE for Creep & Wear Resistance
Novum MS 01 is a free flow molding grade PTFE resin, 15% Glass Fiber, 9.4% Carbon and 0.6% Graphite filled to deliver good resistance to creep and wear compared to virgin PTFE. This filler combination improves dimensional stability, making it a strong choice for joint seals, backup rings and valve seats where consistent performance under load matters over the long term.

Novum MS 01 properties
ISMAT manufactures Novum MS 01 as a 15% Glass Fiber, 9.4% Carbon and 0.6% Graphite filled PTFE resin, validated through in-house testing to confirm consistent quality across every batch. This free flow molding grade offers lower deformation under load, higher elongation and higher dielectric strength than virgin PTFE, along with the added dimensional stability that comes from its glass fiber content.
The inclusion of graphite gives Novum MS 01 improved lubricity, contributing to better fatigue performance over repeated loading cycles — an advantage in applications where seals are subject to continuous mechanical stress. With an operating range of -200°C to +260°C, it performs reliably across both cryogenic and high-temperature service conditions.
If your application requires a PTFE compound that combines creep resistance, wear resistance and dimensional stability in one grade, Novum MS 01 is worth evaluating. Contact ISMAT to discuss your specific operating requirements.
