PTFE MESH

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) Mesh for surgical and medical device applications, including hernia mesh, stress urinary incontinence slings, vaginal prolapse suspenders, and soft tissue reconstruction. Our Polytetrafluoroethylene Knitted Mesh (PTFEKM) fabrics are comprised of monofilament yarns engineered for the manufacture of textile fabrics. The polymer and manufacturing processes utilized produce fabrics with properties well suited for the manufacture of medical devices.

PTFE Mesh fabrics provide high strength with high suppleness. The fabrics are very soft to the touch and conform very easily to three-dimensional profiles. The cut edges of the mesh fabrics are very soft. And of course, the mesh fabrics are very inert with low reactivity due to the nature of the PTFE polymer.

The PTFEKM family of fabrics offered range in pore sizes from about 1.5 mm to 3.5 mm, and weights from 44 to 98 gsm. Our family of PTFEKM fabrics are available for immediate delivery. PTFEKM fabrics are offered in convenient roll sizes that measure about 50 meters long by 30-34 centimeters wide.

We are actively developing new designs to meet the growing needs and trends in the biomedical field, so visit us periodically to keep abreast of our new offerings.

Review the Processing Considerations for our mesh fabrics.

POLYTETRAFLUOROETHYLENE MESH FABRICS CANNOT BE GAMMA IRRADIATED! USE ONLY AN APPROVED METHOD FOR STERILIZATION, SUCH AS ETHYLENE OXIDE (EtO) OR STEAM AUTOCLAVE.

MESH FABRICS CONVERTED INTO FINISHED MEDICAL DEVICES MUST UNDERGO A FINAL CLEANING STEP THROUGH A CUSTOMER APPROVED PROCESS.

ISO-10993 Biocompatibility results for Polytetrafluoroethylene Mesh are available to our customers upon request.
