PET Rods Polyethylene Terephthalate

PET from Gonow Plastics is a semicrystalline polyester terephthalate (PET)
polymer that exhibits excellent strength, rigidity, and machinability. Additionally,
this material offers dimensional stability and wear resistance that meets or
exceeds that of nylon or acetal. Due to it’s superior chemical resistance and food
contact approvals, Gonow PET stock shapes are the preferred material
for components in food processing applications such as pistons, valves, feed screws,
and food product forming and extrusion dies. Additionally, the low moisture absorption
and low rate of thermal expansion offered by Gonow makes it ideal for demanding
applications that require close tolerance, precisely machined component parts. Gonow
PET machines easily and is offered by Gonow Plastics in a complete range of extruded
rod and heavy gauge plate sizes.
