Guide rings

Ptfe piston guide rings

A Neuflon-PTFE compound tape intended to be used as a guiding element
Neuflon N-071 for hydaulic applications
Neuflon N-059 for pneumatic applications
Long life of both the skate and the sliding surface. Low friction and no Stick-Slip. Possibility of dry running. Exceptional resistance to the 'Diesel effect'. Ample thermal and chemical resistance. Ready availability from coils.
