PP Square Rods
Polypropylene (PP) square rods are solid bars with a square cross-section made from polypropylene, a durable and lightweight thermoplastic polymer. These rods are an excellent choice for applications requiring chemical resistance, durability, and versatility while maintaining a precise shape for machining and fabrication.
Common Applications
- Chemical Industry: Fabricates parts like fittings, tanks, and spacers for corrosive environments.
- Food and Beverage: Used in food processing equipment, guides, and scrapers.
- Machinery Components: Ideal for manufacturing bushings, gears, and spacers for mechanical systems.
- Construction:Used in custom profiles, spacers, and structural supports.
- Plating and Metal Finishing: Utilized for components in chemical baths due to their resistance to corrosion.
- Textile and Paper Industry:Applied in machine guides and rollers.
- Custom Fabrication:Used in manufacturing custom parts where precise dimensions are required.
