Item # PETP891026, Plastic, P.E.T., Sheets, 1/2 inches, 24 x 48 inches

Polyethylene Terephthalate (P.E.T.)

A preferred replacement for Acetal where there is a concern for dimensional stability after machining. P.E.T. has excellent wear resistance and a low coefficient of friction, in addition to a very low water absorption rate and being FDA compliant. The low moisture characteristic makes P.E.T. ideal for electrical applications. The outstanding hardness and stiffness properties along with good chemical resistance enables P.E.T. to be the answer to many applications.
  • Available in plates, rounds, sheets
  • Custom sizes available
