15% Glass Fiber with 5% MoS2 Filled PTFE Tube
MoS2 is an inorganic mixture that can be found in the nature of Molybdenum mineral. PTFE filled with Molybdenum sulfide (MoS2) provides harder and more slippery material.

What is 15% Glass Fiber with 5% MoS2 Filled PTFE Tube?
P6500-GM is made of 15% glass fiber + 5% Mos2 and 80% PTFE, 15% glass fiber with 5% MoS2 filled PTFE tube has improved the ability of dimensional stability and higher deformation under load than normal PTFE. It is preferred for parts and components requiring very good mechanical properties. P6500-GM PTFE glass MoS2 compound enhances some characteristics of virgin PTFE such as wear, compression strength, deformation under load, cold creep, thermal conductivity and dimensional stability.
Typical Application
15% glass fiber with 5% MoS2 filled PTFE tube offers excellent properties in the chemical processing, in automotive industries, in sealing application and in mechanical applications in general for bushing, sliding pads, and for slide ways for machine tools. High wear, abrasion resistance and good wear compression properties are suitable for the majority of dry bearing applications against hard counter surfaces. 15% glass fiber with 5% MoS2 filled PTFE tube is commonly used filler for dynamic seal applications where both rotating and alternating movements are involved, pneumatic, hydraulic and mechanical parts, valve seats, gaskets, pneumatic, compressors, appliances, insulators hydraulic and mechanical parts.
What Benefits the 5% MoS2 Can Bring to PTFE?
After adding glass fiber, the coefficient of friction for PTFE will get bigger, so the addition of the MoS2 reduces coefficient of friction and enhances wear resistance. Mos2 is short for Molybdenum Disulfide, also can be called Moly.
