The F2 guiding tape made of PTFE compounds is intended specifically for use in pneumatic cylinders. The edges of the guiding tape have been adapted to the application conditions in pneumatics. The length of the cut-to-size guiding tape results in a suitable gap during installation which allows the system pressure to pass toward the seal, taking thermal expansions into account. The resulting gap is preferably created at a 45 ° angle in order to enable a minimum guidance function under load in the direction of the gap. Alternative gap versions (straight cut, stepped cut) are possible.
The PTFE compound should be selected depending on temperature and the permissible permanent deformation ɛ.

• Due to application-optimized geometry and compounds suitable for use in oiled as well as in oil-free air (after initial lubrication on assembly).
• Vibration absorption effect.
• Very good emergency running properties in low-lube conditions.
• High load capacity (compressive strength), low wear and reduced friction due to special carbon additive in PTFE material.
• Dimensions according to ISO 10766.
• Also available as bulk material.
• Suitable for cylinder repairs.
• Ideally suited for large-diameter.
• Bulk material.
• Installation in closed housings.
