Material Properties
Component Supply's PTFE guide wire assemblies consist of PTFE light wall tubing and straightened wire. These assemblies are made with a 72-inch length of PTFE light wall tubing and a 72-inch length of 304V (or 304 depending on the wire diameter) stainless steel straightened wire, giving customers plenty of material to make their own specific cuts. The stainless steel material of the wire coupled with the lubricity of the PTFE makes these guide wire assemblies effective for applications requiring precision tolerances and temperature and corrosion resistance.
