Description
The DuraFab® Industrial Series is the workhorse of AFC's product line. It is the most extensive line of fabrics, serving a broad range of industrial and general-purpose applications. These fabrics are manufactured from woven fiberglass substrates, possess an optimal PTFE content, and leave a minimal fabric impression. As AFC's most popular and versatile fabric series, DuraFab® Industrial Fabrics provide the highest value to customers by offering an excellent balance between heat transfer, release, and flexibility.
DuraFab® PTFE Coated Fabric Characteristics
DuraFab® Fabrics are engineered to retain the distinctive properties of PTFE; however, by adding a glass fabric to the matrix, AFC is able to obtain the added benefits of dimensional stability, durability, excellent tensile strength and extremely low elongation (<1%). DuraFab® Fabrics have received USDA approval for food processing and handling, and are FDA compliant (21CFR177.1550). In addition, the DuraFab® fabrics can operate in temperatures from -400ºF (-240ºC) under static conditions and -100ºF (-73º C) under dynamic conditions up to 550ºF (288ºC).
