Fluorotherm introduces corrosion resistant load bearing metal rods; with complete encapsulation in PTFE tubing FEP tubing, PFA tubing. These rods may be used to support work in a corrosive environment such as a plating or coating bath, as carrier to transport work in a chemically aggressive environment and in numerous other uses. The rigidity of the metal core provides strength that cannot be matched by plastic rods. A PTFE or other adapter of appropriate configuration over the encapsulated rod can be used as points of support. This encapsulated construction provides the strength of metal and the chemical resistance of fluoropolymer materials. Such construction can bear up to 700 lb loads in nitric, HF; hydrochloric and sulfuric acid baths and other hazardous atmospheres. The complete fluoropolymer encapsulation is distinctly superior to heat shrink tube covering where the wall thickness is too light to sustain reasonable loads or abrasive wear, without tearing or cracking. The high continuous use temperature of PTFE, FEP or PFA permits these materials to be used up to 400 deg F.
