PTFE (Teflon®) plays an essential role in civil construction, with applications ranging from supports (sliding bearing) for bridges and viaducts to structures subject to expansion or vibration. Its use in steel or concrete supports of pipes, tanks and large roofs highlights its versatility. Furthermore, non-sintered PTFE (Teflon®) tapes, known as Thread Seal Tape, are widely used to simplify the assembly and disassembly of threaded connections.

Main applications:

• Manufacture of gaskets for flange seals;
• Sliding bearing for bridges and viaducts;
• Pipe cradles and tank supports;
• Thread Sealing Tape for sealing hydraulic pipes.
