Automotive and other transport applications use fluoropolymer containing oils and greases in various components, where low/high temperatures and other harsh conditions are expected, also resulting in reduced energy consumption. PFPE-based lubricants combining a unique set of properties in a wide temperature range offer lifetime lubrication and safety (e.g., non-flammable, no failure due to stress cracking of plastics or elastomers) for applications such as, not limited to, rolling bearings, actuators, plastic gear boxes, electrical contacts, sensors, sintered metal bearings, braking systems, car interior plastic lubrication and aid assembly during manufacturing.
Electrical connectors and similar technologies like circuit breakers also benefit from the lubricity offered by PTFE containing coatings, together with the temperature resistance. The higher lubricity offered by even a very thin coating allows for lower “press-in” force for the wire to make the connection and the overall durability of the coating ensures a longer service life for the connectors and lower failure rate for the equipment using it. |

Everflon™PTFE are also used to lubricate gearboxes in nuclear power plants.
Applications where the parts and equipment are exposed to harsh chemicals (e.g., acids, alkalis), such as in the chemicals industry, food and feed industry or in oil and gas operations. Examples can be lubrication of oxygen valves and similar equipment.
Wind power applications
Non-stick coatings as dry film lubricants also have many industrial and professional applications, such as in baked goods production, food processing, automotive and transportation, high-temperature kitchen equipment, medical equipment, etc.
Everflon™ PTFE is used as an additive for friction reduction in use of other polymers, flares for military, and pyrotechnics.
