PET, commonly used for mechanical applications is a polyester with a semicrystalline structure that is characterized by its hardness, stiffness, and strength (the amorphous variant of the polymer has lower mechanical properties, is highly transparent, and is commonly used for bottles and packaging).
PET plastic also offers excellent sliding properties and lower frictional wear than POM in both dry and wet environments.
PET plastic also offers excellent sliding properties and has less frictional wear than POM,
Due to its high dimensional stability, low moisture absorption and excellent mechanical properties, PET is ideal for complex components that require high precision and surface quality.
PET offers good thermal stability, and while it cannot be used in the presence of steam, it also has good resistance to chemicals.
PET is also approved for use in contact with food.
