Taconic PTFE & Silicone Rubber Coated Fabrics

High-performance PTFE coated fiberglass fabrics and silicone rubber coated fabrics engineered for demanding industrial applications requiring release, heat resistance, durability, dimensional stability, and chemical resistance.

Engineered Coated Fabrics for Demanding Applications

Taconic PTFE coated fiberglass fabric is lightweight, durable, non-flammable, chemically resistant, and temperature resistant. It provides a nonstick surface, dimensional stability, weather resistance, and strong electrical and thermal insulation performance.

Taconic silicone rubber coated fiberglass fabric offers a tough coated surface with high flex properties, excellent slip coefficient, outstanding release, abrasion resistance, and chemical resistance. Liquid Silicone Rubber fabric provides a non-slip surface, and select grades are approved for direct food contact.

Performance Advantages

Nonstick Release

PTFE and silicone coated fabrics provide reliable release surfaces for heat sealing, lamination, molding, and food processing.

Heat Resistance

Designed for high-temperature environments where dimensional stability and consistent performance are critical.

Chemical Resistance

Engineered fabric constructions help resist harsh chemicals, oils, solvents, and demanding industrial process conditions.

Durability

Strong coated fiberglass substrates support long service life in abrasive, high-flex, and production-driven applications.

Common Applications

Taconic coated fabrics are used across industries where nonstick release, thermal stability, and dependable processing performance are essential.

Aerospace

Food Processing

Quick Service Restaurants

Chemical Processing

Packaging

PVC Welding

Lamination

Composite Molding

Fabric Grades

Premium Grade

Reusable pan liners for cooking and baking
Laminate separator sheets
Tortilla and pizza crust belts
Specialized heat sealing
Applications where fabric weave impression is undesirable

Standard Grade

Used in the widest range of applications due to its combination of high performance and moderate price.

Release sheets on heat sealing machines
Laminate press release surfaces
Nonstick surfaces for paints, adhesives, and food products
Gaskets, seals, and bearings
Hot platen, chute, hopper, and trough covers

Mechanical Grade

A medium PTFE coating for applications where economy is more important than maximum chemical resistance and where surface texture is useful.

Chemical resistant laboratory aprons
Protective curtains for paint spraying
Bottle washing, acid protection, and food packaging applications

Economy Grade

Provides a light PTFE coating for large volume applications requiring cost-efficiency and high performance.

Leaders for processing paper, plastics, metallic foils, and cloth
Separator sheets for uncured rubber processing
Abrasive wheel manufacturing

Porous Bleeder & Filter Cloth

Promotes drying by allowing airflow through the fabric. Available in a wide range of porosity and ideal for outgassing volatile products.

Release cloth in vacuum molding
Filtration
Pollution abatement
Strainers

Open Mesh Fabric

Used for belts that allow airflow and promote drying. Ideal for curing and bonding inks, pigments, and powders to fabrics and non-woven materials.

Tac-Black™ & Anti-Static Fabric

Tac-Black™ is a pigmented fabric for applications where natural fabric is not suitable. Tac-Black™ Anti-Static includes carbon loading for semi-conductive and anti-static properties.

Release sheets
Conveyor belts for fusing machines

Crease & Tear Resistant

Offers substantially higher tear strength and flexibility for high-speed applications.

High speed packaging belts
Edge reinforcement for industrial belts

Silicone Rubber Coated Fiberglass Fabric

Outstanding dielectric properties, superior release, and high abrasion and flex resistance make silicone rubber coated fiberglass fabrics ideal for demanding environments.

Electrical insulation tapes and gaskets
Heater covers
Safety curtains
Conveyor belts for foam manufacturing and shrink tunnels
Release and separator sheets for viscous processes

Liquid Silicone Rubber Fabric

A chemically inert fabric with excellent release properties, available with liquid silicone rubber on both sides or with PTFE on one side and liquid silicone rubber on the other.

Direct food contact applications
Non-food contact applications
