PU Rod

PU Rod

Polyurethanes have an unusually high load-bearing capacity, and exhibit deflection and recovery capabilities that far exceed plastics or metals. Internally, polyurethanes have an elastic component that stores and returns energy, and a viscous component that captures and absorbs energy.

Advantage of Polyurethane Rod:

1. Very good abrasion resistant
2. Oil and solvent resistant
3. Deformation resistance
4. Resistance to ageing
5. Tear resistant
6. Excellent noise abatement properties
7. Excellent vibration abatement properties
8. Very good flex-Life

What Polyurethane Rod is used for?

Applications include automotive suspension bushings, gaskets, seals, castors, wheels, bearing seals, valve inserts, shock absorbers, noise dampers as well as roller coaster and escalator wheels. It is also used as a wear strip on snow ploughs as well as pulleys on fishing trawlers.
