Polypropylene Rod is a robust, lightweight material with good mechanical strength and impact resistance. It absorbs little water and is resistant to a wide range of acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. It also has high thermal and electrical insulating characteristics, although at low temperatures it becomes brittle. It’s also FDA-approved, and it’s simple to mill, mould, and weld, but it’s tough to bind. By clicking the link above, you can purchase polypropylene rods from Petron Thermoplast.
Temperature ranges from -20°C to +80°C.
Low density and low water absorption.
Tough, durable, and light.
Strong resistance to dilute acids, cleaning chemicals, and a variety of solvents.
Easy to shape, machine and weld.
FDA authorised.
Also available: Polypropylene Sheet.
