General Engineering Plastic Rods:
1. Polyamide (PA, Nylon) Rod
Characteristics: Renowned for its high strength and wear resistance, this rod is self-lubricating, making it ideal for smooth operations. However, it has strong moisture absorption, necessitating pre-drying and careful processing.
Application: Perfect for wear-resistant components in demanding applications like chemical machinery turbines, gears, and sliding guide plates.
2. Polyoxymethylene (POM) Rod
Characteristics: Known for high rigidity and exceptional creep resistance, this rod sustains long-term usage across a temperature range of -40°C to 104°C, with a notably low friction coefficient of 58.
Application: Ideal for lightweight automotive parts, textile machinery gears, and precise engineering components such as precision bearings.
3. Polypropylene (PP) Rod
Features: Distinguished by its low density of 0.9g/cm³, this rod is both acid and alkali-resistant, non-toxic, and meets rigorous food-grade standards.
Application: Highly suitable for applications in food packaging containers, pharmaceutical equipment pipelines, and chemical anti-corrosion lining.
4. Polycarbonate (PC) Rod
Characteristics: Offers transparency combined with strong impact resistance, although it has poor UV stability, limiting some outdoor applications.
Application: Perfect for optical instrument components, as an intermediate layer in bulletproof glass, and as protective electronic equipment shells.
5. Polyphenylene Oxide (PPO) Rod
Features: Esteemed for its high dimensional stability, exceptional hydrolysis resistance, and outstanding electrical insulation properties.
Applications: Widely used in medical devices, high-temperature connectors, and automotive sensor housings, ensuring reliability and safety.
