What Fluoro-Plastics does

Fluoro-Plastics, Inc. is a privately held US manufacturer of Teflon and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) components headquartered in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. The company produces a broad catalog of semi-finished and finished fluoropolymer products, including skived sheets, molded plates, rods, extruded tubes, thin films (0.001\" to 0.020\" thickness, up to 60\" width), guide rails, rectangular bars, wear strips, custom profiles, machined parts, gaskets, washers, and molded cylinders. Specialized variants include glass-filled reinforced PTFE, bondable (etched) PTFE, and modified PTFE formulations designed for adhesive bonding and enhanced mechanical performance.

The company's underlying technology centers on PTFE skiving and molding processes, with documented capabilities in producing ultra-thin skived films and custom molded shapes to industrial tolerances. All products are manufactured in the USA, and the company operates under a Chemours Teflon trademark license alongside DEKRA ISO 9001:2015 certification, with products compliant to ASTM D 3308 and AMS 3661C specifications.

Fluoro-Plastics operates a B2B direct sales model, with all transactions handled via toll-free phone, local phone, fax, and an online RFQ system rather than published pricing. Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales of custom-manufactured components to industrial buyers across four primary verticals: industrial manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, and pharmaceutical. The company is small (1-10 employees per firmographic data) and serves only the US market, with no disclosed revenue, funding, or leadership team in the source material.

Products and services

• PTFE Sheet (Skived Sheet) Skived PTFE sheets sold as stock industrial plastic sheet material for fabricators and industrial buyers.
• PTFE Molded Plate Compression-molded PTFE plates for industrial applications requiring thicker fluoropolymer stock.
• PTFE Rod Molded PTFE rods used as raw stock for machining into finished industrial parts.
• PTFE Extruded Tube PTFE tubing produced by extrusion for industrial fluid handling, insulation, and chemical-resistant applications.
• PTFE Thin Film Very thin skived PTFE film used where flexible, chemically resistant fluoropolymer sheeting is required.
• Bondable PTFE Surface-treated (bondable) PTFE for applications requiring adhesion to elastomers or other materials.
• Reinforced PTFE Glass-filled and otherwise reinforced PTFE compounds for improved wear resistance and mechanical strength in sealing and bearing applications.
• Modified PTFE Modified PTFE grades tailored for higher performance versus standard PTFE in wear, creep, and chemical exposure use cases.
• PTFE Guide Rails, Rectangular Bar & Wear Strips PTFE profile shapes used as low-friction guide rails, rectangular bars, and wear strips in industrial machinery.
• PTFE Custom Profiles Custom-extruded PTFE profiles manufactured to customer specifications for non-standard geometries.
• PTFE Machined Parts Custom-machined PTFE components produced to drawing, including PTFE gaskets, glass-filled PTFE gaskets, PTFE washers, and Teflon square bar.
