PETP Extruded Natural Rod
Description
PETP Extruded Natural Rod is a high performance engineering plastic with product characteristics including very high dimensional stability, very low moisture absorption and excellent creep behaviour. The long term service temperature range of PETP Rod is from -20°C to 115°C and has a short term maximum service temperature of 180°C.
Typical fields of application for PETP Rod include mechanical engineering, ship building industries and electrical and electronic industries. PETP Rod is a material well suited to CNC turning, precision grinding and billeting. Similar materials available from Plastock include PETP Extruded Black Rod and Acetal C Extruded Natural Rod.
If you have a requirement for machined or finished PETP components please ask the Plastock team for more information.
