Polyethylene terephthalate. Excellent dimensional stability, FDA/USDA/3.A compliant.
UNIPET PET from Nytef Plastics is a semicrystalline
polyester terephthalate (PET)
polymer that exhibits excellent strength,
rigidity, and machinability. Additionally, this
material offers dimensional stability and wear
resistance that meets or exceeds that of nylon
or acetal. Due to it’s superior chemical
resistance and food contact approvals, UNIPET
PET stock shapes are the preferred material
for components in food processing applications
such as pistons, valves, feed screws, and
food product forming and extrusion dies.
Additionally, the low moisture absorption
and low rate of thermal expansion offered
by UNIPET makes it ideal for demanding
applications that require close tolerance,
precisely machined component parts. UNIPET
PET machines easily and is offered by Nytef
Plastics in a complete range of extruded
rod and heavy gauge plate sizes.
