Since it has very good dimensional stability and low moisture absorption, PET is an ideal material for the manufacture of parts that require high dimensional precision and a fine final finish. In addition to normal PET, we manufacture different grades of Polyethylene Terephthalate, either loaded with solid lubricant or with dyes.
- Main Characteristics
