Repro-Lon Texas Purchasing & Grading Criteria for PTFE Scrap


Grade 1 Scrap Includes clean items fabricated from virgin granular PTFE molding powders, unmodified by pigments or fillers. Typical examples are cores, cracked billets and preforms, rod, tube & sheet ends, chucking stubs, out-of-tolerance & obsolete parts, heavy tape punchings and trimmings, and exceptionally clean machine turnings uncontaminated by oil.
Grade 2 Scrap Includes items similar to Grade 1 Scrap, but may be fabricated from partially or totally reprocessed PTFE, with some easily removable contamination allowable.
Grade 3 Scrap Includes etched, degraded virgin or reprocessed PTFE, items with deeply embedded contaminants such as rusty valve seats & gaskets, wire & cable jackets, oil contaminated machine turnings and the like.
Unusable Scrap As it is extremely difficult to remove excessive oil and contaminants from some machine turnings and other types of scrap, care should be exercised in their collection and storage. Any overly contaminated scrap, particularly oily scrap, will greatly reduce its value and may downgrade the entire container as unusable. Freight charges on unusable scrap will be deducted from the value of the usable scrap.
