Features:
- Low moisture absorption
- High strength and stiffness
- Easy to machine

- FDA, USDA, NSF, Canada AG and 3-A Dairy compliant
Applications:
- Bushings and bearings
- Electrical components
- Structural keels

Engineering Note:
In general, acetals do not perform as well in abrasive wear applications as nylons. Compensation for moisture
related growth generally allows nylons to be used for wet, abrasive applications. If your application requires
dimensional consistency in an abrasive, high humidity or submerged environment, Ertalyte® PET-P will often offer
improved performance.
