Crease and tear resistant PTFE coated fiberglass fabric for dynamic industrial applications

Taconic crease and tear resistant PTFE coated fiberglass fabric is engineered for applications requiring improved flexibility, tear strength, release performance, and durability during repeated movement.

These PTFE coated fiberglass fabrics are designed to help resist damage from creasing, flexing, folding, and high-speed processing conditions while maintaining heat resistance and useful non-stick release properties.

Crease and tear resistant fabrics are especially useful in belt fabrication, dynamic process environments, flexible release surfaces, high-flex applications, and operations where conventional coated fabrics may fatigue too quickly.

 
 

Performance Advantages

Why choose this
fabric construction?

High Flexibility

Designed for applications involving repeated movement, flexing, folding, or bending where standard coated fabrics may fatigue more quickly.

Tear Resistance

Improved tear resistance helps support demanding fabrication, belting, and processing applications exposed to mechanical stress.

Dynamic Use

Well suited for moving process surfaces, flexible belts, and applications where repeated flex cycles are part of normal operation.

Longer Service Life

Helps reduce premature fabric damage in high-flex environments while maintaining PTFE release and heat resistance.

 

Common Applications

Built for focused
industrial use cases.

Crease and tear resistant PTFE coated fiberglass fabrics are used where repeated flexing, tear resistance, heat resistance, and release performance are important.
