HAMPTON, England, Nov. 9, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Hallite Seals International, a leading global manufacturer of high-performance hydraulic sealing solutions announces availability of its new Armorlene^® PTFE product and material portfolio, a high-performance polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) product and material portfolio that encompasses more than 30 product profiles, 26 materials and 18 Armorlene^® PTFEs.

Armorlene^® PTFE was developed in response to the increasingly sophisticated sealing needs of original equipment manufacturers (OEMS), distributors, and aftermarket service providers. This unique customer base requires global quality control based on industry-leading standards, regional manufacturing for improved product availability and responsiveness, and a manufacturing partner with proven design, material, and application expertise.

"Since seals play a significant role in the performance and productivity of most machinery and equipment, we are very excited to expand our PTFE offering to our global customers with additional materials and a wider product range," says Fred Brocci, Managing Director of Hallite America.
