Ertalyte® is an unreinforced, semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyester based on polyethylene terephthalate (PET-P). It is manufactured from proprietary
resin grades made by Quadrant EPP. Ertalyte® is characterized as having the best dimensional stability coupled with excellent wear resistance, low coefficient
of friction, high strength, and resistance to moderately acidic solutions.
Ertalyte®'s properties make it especially suitable for the manufacture of precision mechanical parts which are capable of sustaining high loads and
enduring wear conditions. Ertalyte®'s continuous service temperature is 210°F (100°C) and its melting point is almost 150°F higher than acetals. Ertalyte®
retains significantly more of its original strength up to 180°F (85°C) than nylon or acetal.
Key Benefits:
- Outstanding wear resistance
- Non-staining
- Excellent dimensional stability
- FDA compliance
- High LPV
- Low and constant coefficient of friction (low slip/stick)
- Low water absorption
- Easy to Machine
Applications:
- Linear bearings
- Wear and slide pads
- Dynamic seals
- Scraper blades
- Thrust washers
- Valve seals
- Journal bearings
- Rollers and wheels without bearings
