Polypropylene rodGEHR PP®

Polypropylene shows a high mechanical strength and a tensile strength, but a low notched impact strength. PP resists stress cracking and it is easy to weld. At minus temperatures it can get brittle. The chemical and electrical properties are very good. The continous operating temperatures ranges between +5 °C and +100 °C.

Properties:

low density
high heat resistance
high tensile strength, high surface strength
high chemical resistance
low oxidation resistance
low abrasion resistance
brittle in the coldness
HF-welding not possible
natural colour is not weather resistant

Applications:

Pumps, valves, gaskets, supporting stands for the coating industry, spacer for the plating, particles for toys.

Shape : rod
