PETP

PETP (Polyethylene Terephthalate) – A Highly Crystalline Thermoplastic

PETP, a unique engineering plastic, boasts remarkable attributes, including exceptional mechanical strength, dimensional stability, sliding properties, and wear resistance. These qualities make it an excellent choice for manufacturing tight-tolerance parts that demand high performance.
It is important to note that PETP is sensitive to heavy impact due to its molecular structure. However, this same structure provides the material with stain resistance, making it particularly valuable for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical applications.

As a trusted supplier, Solutions in Plastic & Engineering offers PETP in sheet and rod stock shapes. Additionally, we provide machining and fabrication services to deliver finished components customised to meet your specific requirements.

Various trade names, including Ertalyte, Sustadur, and Vesconite, know as Polyethylene Terephthalate (PETP). As a plastic supplier and stockist of PETP, Solutions in Plastic & Engineering has the machine expertise and fabricate from rod, sheet, and tube forms.
PETP is offered in conventional and self-lubricating grades to meet the needs of high-speed wear applications or conditions requiring reduced friction.
