PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) is the standard material for professional fluorocarbon fishing lines. Unlike traditional nylon, PVDF offers distinct advantages in optics and physics, making it the top choice for anglers worldwide.
At Shenzhen Teflon New Material Technology Co., Ltd., we supply premium PVDF resin designed for high-quality monofilament extrusion.
The most important feature of PVDF is stealth.
Water Refractive Index: 1.33
PVDF Refractive Index: 1.42
Nylon Refractive Index: 1.53
Because PVDF is optically similar to water, light passes through it. This makes the line nearly invisible underwater, which is critical for catching alert fish.
PVDF is much heavier than nylon.
PVDF Density: 1.78 g/cm³
Nylon Density: 1.14 g/cm³
A heavier line sinks faster and cuts through the water surface easily. It keeps the line tight and straight, giving anglers better control over their lures.
Nylon absorbs water like a sponge, losing strength over time. PVDF does not.
Water Absorption: <0.04% (Resists water completely)
UV Resistance: Does not weaken in sunlight.
Abrasion: Harder surface resists rocks and teeth.
| Feature | PVDF (Fluorocarbon) | Nylon (PA) |
| Visibility | Invisible | Visible |
| Sinking Speed | Fast (High Density) | Slow / Floats |
| Water Absorption | None (<0.04%) | High (3-5%) |
| Sensitivity | High (Stiff) | Low (Stretchy) |
We provide high-purity PVDF raw materials (Pellet & Powder) specifically for fishing line manufacturers.
High Purity (99.99%): No impurities, high transparency.
Stable MFR: Ensures smooth extrusion and consistent line diameter.
Strong Knots: Optimized formulation for better knot strength.
