Ertalyte^® PETP (Polyethylene Terephtalate)

Ertalyte is an unreinforced, semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyester based on polyethylene terephthalate (PET-P). It is characterised as having the best dimensional stability coupled with excellent wear resistance, a low coefficient of friction, high strength, and resistance to moderately acidic solutions - making it especially suitable for the manufacture of precision mechanical parts, capable of sustaining high loads and enduring wear conditions.

Ertalyte is available to buy online in rod, sheet and tube.

Ertalyte is FDA compliant in natural and black. Ertalyte is an excellent candidate for parts used in the food processing and equipment industries, being easily sanitized using clean-in-place chemicals.

Because it is more rigid and offers greater thermal performance than nylon and acetal, Ertalyte machines differently. For best results, consult the machining instructions guide for more information.
