Seeking Teflon Coated Aluminum Sheet

Where can I get teflon coated aluminum sheets in relatively small amounts to be used for experimental purpose?

Any large lab supply company. Fisher Scientific, et. al. Usually in the bench protector section. Bytac Teflon Surface Protector, part#14-206-53 is Teflon FEP on aluminum with an adhesive backing. 15'x 12.5" roll.

Thanks for the response. However, I think I should have been more precise about the application and required properties. Sheet will be used for Nylon 6 application which requires sheet with service temperature of up to 270° C/518° F. The upper limit of the mentioned product is 360° F only.

I have a requirement to use teflon coated sheet for the vapour seal of foam chamber to be installed in a conical tank containing acetic acid [on eBay or Amazon]. Please let me know the thickness of this teflon sheet to be used.

   

The tank is filled with nitrogen blanketing and the vapour seal is to prevent the vapour from getting into the tank and also out of the foam chamber. I used to purchase this from a company where the foam chambers used are of stainless steel type and with teflon coated vapour seal.
