PET-H semi-finished products are white colored materials which, due to their homopolymer structure, have the highest impact resistance in the range of PET semi-finished products. They also have a very high wear resistance (10 times better than regular PET). Like the other types of PET sheets, these sheets have a very high dimensional stability, a property very necessary in the realization of high precision finished parts.
PET-H sheets are recommended to be used in all industrial fields, but especially where there are very high loads, and very high wear resistance and a low friction coefficient are required.
Applications and benefits
Applications:
high precision parts
wind farm bearings
bushings and bearings
gears, cams
mandrels, collectors
wear strips
power units
filter parts
electrical insulators
fuel pump components
fuel supply system
connectors and rotors
Benefits:
high resistance to impact and wear
low friction coefficient
high dimensional stability
excellent abrasion resistance
good electrical insulation characteristics
good chemical resistance to the action of organic solvents
wide range of working temperatures
Processing
In order to be able to make different finished products, PET semi-finished products undergo certain machining, such as drilling, turning, milling, cutting, threading, etc. Due to the almost zero moisture absorption, the dimensional stability of the PET parts is clearly superior to the parts made of PA6 polyamide.
