PETP Rod and Sheet

PETP is a proprietary product manufactured from proprietary resin grades, Ertalyte and Ertalyte TX. Both are both semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyesters.

PETP is FDA approved, classed as a stain resistant plastic, and has very low moisture absorption. Its properties allow mechanical and electrical characteristics to remain virtually unaffected by moisture, making this material ideally suited as a bronze bush replacement. PETP is available in rod, tube and sheet form.

PETP properties make it especially suitable for the manufacture of precision mechanical parts capable of sustaining high loads in challenging wear conditions. PETP machining has never been easier.
