PTFE coated fabric, also called Teflon fabric or PTFE-coated fiberglass cloth, is one of the most versatile industrial materials for hot, sticky or chemical environments. It is sold in rolls by the metre, cut to size, and used as a release layer, a cover or the base material for belts. This guide explains what it is, where it is used and how to choose it. It is based on more than 10 years of supplying PTFE products in Egypt.

What is PTFE coated fabric?

It is woven fiberglass fabric coated with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene, known by the brand name Teflon). The fiberglass provides strength and stability. The PTFE coating provides a smooth non-stick surface, low friction, chemical resistance and heat resistance according to the grade. Our rolls come in brown, beige, black and white.

Main uses

  • Heat presses and transfer printing: a release sheet or cover between the hot platen and the product.
  • Sealing and packaging machines: a protective cover on hot surfaces so plastic does not stick.
  • Fabric printing: the base material for printing belts.
  • Restaurants and food production: non-stick liners for grills and hot plates. Use food-grade material wherever food is touched.
  • General industry: a non-stick, heat-resistant cover or liner for conveyors, plates and tables.

How to choose PTFE coated fabric

Application and temperature

Tell us what the fabric will cover and the working temperature so we can recommend the right grade.

Thickness

Thicker fabric is generally more durable for heavy use. Thinner fabric transfers heat faster and suits light work.

Colour

Colour does not change the basic function. Choose by preference or by what shows residue best in your process.

Food contact

If food touches the fabric, specify food-grade material that meets food safety requirements.

Roll or cut length

We sell by the metre or by the roll. Buying a roll costs less per metre if you use a lot.

Fabric, tape or belt?

Use fabric as a loose cover or liner. Use self-adhesive PTFE tape for fixed jaws and small surfaces. Use solid PTFE belts where the surface has to move, and mesh belts where hot air must pass through.

Care and replacement

Wipe with a soft cloth and avoid sharp tools. Do not exceed the temperature suited to the grade. Replace the fabric when you see cracks, peeling, or when material starts to stick again.
