Special applications of Lenzing PROFILEN® PTFE

How does Lenzing Plastics create environmentally friendly braided fishing lines with PTFE?

The high specific gravity of PTFE (up to 2.2 g/cm³) makes it the perfect material for sinking braided fishing lines. The lines sink by their own weight alone, so there is no need to use highly questionable lead paste. In addition, Lenzing PROFILEN® PTFE yarns are absolutely hydrophobic, stain resistant, UV resistant and durable even in salt water. To provide more variety and meet individual preferences, we manufacture PTFE cords in different colors, gladly on request.
