PTFE sewing thread is made of 100% polytetrafluoroethylene resin material with high-quality temperature resistance(-196~260℃), corrosion resistance, hydrolysis, oxidation resistance, and other properties.
Main features of PTFE sewing thread:
- High temperature resistance: PTFE has excellent high temperature resistance and can be used at extremely high temperatures (usually above 200°C) for extended periods of time without melting or decomposing.
- Chemical resistance: PTFE has good corrosion resistance to most chemicals, so it can be used safely in chemically corrosive environments.
- Non-sticky: PTFE is a material with good non-stickiness and is not easy to adhere to dust, dirt and chemicals, making the sewing thread less likely to clump or break during use.
- Tensile strength: PTFE sewing thread usually has high tensile strength and is suitable for sewing items that need to withstand large tensile forces.
- Wear resistance: PTFE sewing thread has good wear resistance and is not easily worn or broken due to friction.

Several reasons to choose PTFE sewing thread produced by PHILITE
- We accept customized PTFE thread in various colors
- We can produce various specs including 1200D, 1500D, 1800D and 2400D, etc.
- As for the common PTFE thread specification 1200D, the weight of our one bobbin is 800 – 1000 g, and the length of each bobbin is about 7500 m.
- We use neutral carton packaging and then fix it on a plywood pallet to ensure the integrity of the product during transportation.
- The single strand of this product is manufactured by the extruding process, with circular diameter, uniform and full trace, small shrinkage, stable elongation, and large continuous length(the maximum weight specification of 1350dtex conventional line is 1000g/spool and continuous length is 7500m), which is suitable for high-speed sewing machines. In addition, in order to enhance the fastness of stitching, 1650dtex(1500D), 2000dtex(1800D), 2650dtex(2400D) for bag top, bag bottom and other special specifications are equipped.
- In order to ensure the fastness of sewing, this product is made of “long filament” without any bonding and stitching methods. the length of the sewing thread is artificially increased to ensure the safety of the sewing thread and the safety of the filter bag.
- Because PTFE material has a very strong self-lubrication property and extremely low friction coefficient, if there is a stitch jumping during sewing, an appropriate amount of silicone oil can be coated on the sewing line to prevent this situation from happening.
- Due to the particularity of the manufacturing process, there is a 10% error range in linear density and strength parameters.
