Custom Profile Expertise

Drawing on decades of experience and a broad selection of high-performance resins, Zeus is the business partner of choice for developing the solutions you require. Working with our customers early in the design stage, Zeus polymer and extrusion experts can offer guidance for part design and optimization. Our world-class analytical labs and polymer chemists can test, analyze, and offer suggestions to further maximize the performance of your extruded profile.

FIBER PRODUCTS

Zeus performance fibers can be used to create a braided sleeve or over-braid that is both expandable and flexible. The woven braiding can then be placed over existing wire assemblies to guard against chaffing and provide additional chemical wear resistance. The material is also used as a component in filters (semiconductor filters included) and conveyer belts.

Glass Filled Mandrels

For manufacturing process requiring a higher compressive strength than is available in virgin PTFE, Zeus can extrude the mandrels with a compounded glass micro-particle. The glass compound adds to the compressive strength of the PTFE making it the ideal replacement for stainless steel mandrels.


    ADVANTAGES

  • - Lubricity
  • - Smooth surface finish
  • - Higher compressive strength than regular PTFE
  • - Ideal replacement for stainless steel mandrels
  • - Can often be reused

APPLICATIONS

Application range from catheter manufacturing to industrial adhesive thermosetting. These products are manufactured in a way that requires a high-temperature plastic with excellent compressive strength and excellent lubricity. The glass filled mandrels are removed after the part has been completed and, depending on the process, can often be reused for added cost savings.

Performance Fiber

Fibers are a staple in today's petroleum, aerospace, automotive, pulp paper, and food processing industries. In the most challenging environments, Zeus fibers maintain their exceptional physical properties under high levels of mechanical stress, extreme temperatures, and aggressive chemical exposure. When braided into a sleeve, the sleeving provides extra abrasion, heat, and chemical resistance in cramped spaces, such as engine compartments, and keeps wire bundles safely away from moving equipment

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are Zeus tubes available in India?

Although Zeus has a wide range of catalogue products available, most of the time, the lead time for even a custom made product is not longer than 2-3 weeks. Filfab also keep stocks of selected products in its warehouse in India for faster deliveries.

What are the major applications for Zeus tubing?

Zeus is a global leader in supply of flouropolymer tubing to the Medical Device market. Zeus tubings also find applications in critical fluid handling in pharmacueticals and Semi conductor industries and for applications in the electrical and mechanical industries.

Will Zeus help me in selecting the right tube for my application?

Yes, of course. Zeus Application Engineers would be happy to discuss your process and suggest the right polymer for you. Zeus also provides several customisation options like colours, packaging and even testing and certification for challenging applications.

What certifications are offered by Zeus for Medical grade tubings ?

Zeus is proud to offer biocompaitbility and USP Class VI certification for most of its resins like PTFE, FEP, PFA, ETFE and PEEK. In addition, Zeus has certified USP Class VI tests for many pigments and compounds used. Further Zeus offer 100% traceability on all your orders. All tubings are supplied with a Certificate of Conformance as a standard offering.

What is the shelf life and what are the storage requirements?

Extruded fluoropolymer tubing does not have a determined shelf life. Extensive weathering and ageing tests reveal no degradation when exposed to weather, UV light or extreme temperatures. However Heat Shrink tubings are shipped with expiry dates although Zeus has tested heat shrink tubing that has been aged more than 20 years and revealed no adverse characteristics.
