Polyester is an engineering plastic specially suited for manufacturing high performance mechanical precision parts which have to sustain high loads and/or are subject to wear. Available in sheet, rod and tube form, polyester has similar properties to acetal, but is a harder material, featuring additional dimensional stability and tensile strength.
Features and Benefits of Polyester:
Excellent tensile strength & dimensional stability
High impact resistance
Very good wear, stain & high energy radiation resistance
Good electrical insulating properties
Physiologically inert – well suited for contact with food
Uses of Polyester:
Thrust washers
Precision gears and bearings
Slideways
Pump components
Precision mechanical components
Polyester is available in the following forms and sizes:
SHEET
Thickness: 2 – 50 mm
Sizes: 1000 x 610 mm; 3000 x 610 mm
ROD
Outside Diameter: 12 – 200 mm
TUBE
Outside Diameter: 20 – 180 mm
Colours: Natural (white), TX grey (bearing grade)
As with all of our engineering plastics, polyester rod, sheet & tube can be cut to size or custom fabricated as required. All products and services we provide are available to the general public, including custom design and fabrication. All of our plastic sheet, rod and tube can be cut to size. Limited engineering plastics and adhesives are available on our eBay store.
