PET-P (Arnite & OmniaLite)

PET-P, or Polyethylene Terephthalate, is known for its good dimensional stability, low moisture absorption and strength compared to Acetal. Preferred material for complex parts, especially in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

• Mechanical performance
• Dimensional stability, due to low moisture absorption
• Temperature range -20°C to +115°C
• Excellent machinability of high-tolerance parts
• Physiological inertness
• FDA compliance

• Limited resistance to weak alkalis and strong alkaline solutions
• Hydrolysis in hot water
• Machinability
• Brittle at low temperatures
• UV degradation
• Brittle at low temperatures

Bearings, sliders, guides, rollers, valves and much more

PET-P TX LF, or Polyethylene Terephthalate filled with Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), haslower friction compared with normal PET-P, with greater dimensional stability than PTFE.Suitable for high pressure, speed, sliding parts in wet environments.

• Low friction and heigh wear resistance
• Temperature range -20°C to +115°C
• Mechanical strength and better shock resistance than PET-P
• Good electrical insulation
• Better machinability
• FDA compliance

• UV resistance
• Flammability
• Cost vs standard PET-P
• Impact strength at low temperatures
• Poor chemical resistance to strong acids and weak alkalies

Bearings, bushes, marine, medical, food and much more.
