Limitations of PTFE Pipes in Practical Applications

While PTFE pipes are flexible, they also have certain limitations in practical applications. First, the bending radius of PTFE pipes needs to be controlled within a certain range; too small a bending radius may cause stress concentration inside the pipe, thus affecting its service life. Second, the bending angle of PTFE pipes is also limited; too large a bending angle may cause pipe deformation or breakage. Furthermore, the relatively high cost of PTFE pipes is also a factor limiting their widespread use.
