PPS GF40 black
PPS (polyphenylene sulphide) is a high-performance thermoplastic known for its exceptional thermal stability, chemical resistance and inherent flame retardancy.
Because of the high level of glass fibre reinforcement, PPS GF40 black demonstrates excellent rigidity and very high strength at high temperatures, making it suitable for parts exposed to high static loads. However, glass fibres may have an abrasive effect on mating surfaces, making this grade less suitable for sliding applications.
Vanéflon is your partner for rods, tubes, sheets and machined parts.
