A composite PTFE article and a process for producing the article is described. A PTFE article is stretched while a thermoplastic polymeric layer is adhered to the PTFE article thereby causing the thermoplastic polymer layer to be stretched and become thin. The expanded composite PTFE article may be in the shape of a film, tube, rod or filament. The expanded composite PTFE article exhibits high cut-through resistance and increased resistance to penetration by low surface tension liquids. |
