## **PTFE Skived Sheets Description**
**Overview:**PTFE skived sheets are **thin, flexible sheets of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)** manufactured through a **skiving process**, where a PTFE billet is shaved into continuous thin layers. These sheets are known for their **excellent chemical resistance, non-stick surface, thermal stability, and electrical insulation properties**. They are widely used across industries where **low friction, flexibility, and chemical inertness** are required.
