Fluorosint (PTFE + mica)
Fluorosints' unique properties are the result of a proprietary process in which synthetically manufactured mica is chemically linked to PTFE. This bonding results into a load-carrying and thermal expansion rate not normally attainable in reinforced PTFE. The chemical and tempearture resitance inherent in PTFE are partially retained.
