Novum GF is a series of glass-filled PTFEs from ISMAT that have improved mechanical and wear properties but lower tensile strength than virgin PTFEs (Novum P).ISMAT is a global manufacturer of high-performance seals designed to fit various industrial landscapes such as Aerospace, Oil & Gas, Chemical and Energy sectors.
A type of Reinforced Polytetrafluoroethylene (R-PTFE), glass-filled PTFEs are generally strengthened with glass fibres (grades of 15% & 25%, depending on requirements), creating a material that has improved mechanical strength, wear resistance and low deformation under heavy loads. It also remains chemically inert at higher temperatures.
Novum GF is available in white & black colors, and can be used in temperature conditions of -150°C to +250°C.
However, The glass-filled PTFE, a high-performance seal, slightly increases the coefficient of friction and is not resistant to alkalis and hydrofluoric acid.
ISMAT produces the best engineering plastics compounds, O-rings seals, and other sealing solutions that ensure the best functionality and durability.
