TEFLON LINING LIFE AS FUNCTION OF TEMPERATURE
TEFLON LINING LIFE AS FUNCTION OF TEMPERATURE
(OP)
I would like to know if the life of a teflon lining in a boiler at 212 degrees F would be less than that at ambient temperature.
I've been told it would decrease by one-half.

As sometimes happens my customer, who is an intermediary for his customer, doesn't know the answer to your questions re type of lining etc. and his customer is going forward with accepting that operating the boiler at 212 degrees is not a problem.
I guess time will tell.

gacguy,
Please explain more about your case. Where is the specific location of problem (flange, elbow or etc.)?
RE: TEFLON LINING LIFE AS FUNCTION OF TEMPERATURE
Thank you both for taking the time to respond to my initial query.
The party who asked the original question, per the intermediary party, is not providing any further information and so my contact said to forget about it.
Perhaps, when or if the lining fails, they will be more diligent in pursuing a suitable solution to their application.
Thanks again,
gacguy
