TEFR is a composite material. It is made of bronze wire mesh as a framework and calendered with a PTFE film by sintering. TEFR has a low friction coefficient and exemplary performance in anti-wear. Because of its flexibility, it can act as a segregation film between two steel friction surfaces. You will see its superior performance of no clearance, no noise, no oil lubrication, no maintenance, and no pollution in this application. At present, it is widely used in circumstances of relatively low load and slow speed, such as textile machines, spherical bearings, automotive door hinges, and the operating rod for cars.
