Fluoroplastic products
coated probe covers
Coated probe covers offer complete chemical resistance in temperature, capacitance and magnetic applications.
Fluoroplastics are some of the most inert materials known to man, and they also have a very high temperature resistance for polymeric materials. This means that they are ideal materials for the protection of sensors in applications where highly corrosive or solvent conditions exist.
Coated Probe Covers Range
We produce probe covers from 0.5mm to 40mm diameter and any length. We also encapsulate mercury in glass thermometers for shatterproofing.

Encapsulating Measurement Elements
Fluoroplastics are relatively difficult materials to process, but by using a combination of moulding, shrinking, welding, or spraying techniques, we can provide a fluoroplastic probe cover of any length or diameter, without damaging delicate sensor elements inside.
We use a variety of technologies to encapsulate measurement elements - typically thermocouples, thermistors and bimetallics for temperature control, and capacitance and magnetic for level & proximity detection.

Designing bespoke fluoroplastic probe covers
Here at Adtech, we are specialists in producing fluoroplastic probe covers for stainless-steel temperature-detection and level-detection sensors, both for medical and industrial applications.
Case study: Custom FEP sensor probe cover
A customer was looking to improve their existing level detection probe, used in automotive and marine applications. This led to the development and production of a bespoke FEP probe cover.
The benefits of FEP coated thermowells
In industries where temperature measurement is necessary, most of the consideration is given to the type of temperature sensor that will be used and not how to protect it.
