EN/PTFE for bearing cage

2006

Hi,
I would like to coat a bearing cage with EN/PTFE to reduce friction between the cage and the bearing track.
What is the max working temp for EN/PTFE (its an engine core bearing)?.
Thanks.

No appreciable changes up to 250 °C either in the Teflon or the nickel matrix. What kind of engine, by the way?
