Polyurethane has extremely versatile polymer used in number of industrial applications. Polyurethane's mechanical property offers to solve problems with performance characteristics unequaled in any other polymer material.
Polyurethane is known for ability to create intricate and complex shapes making it a suitable for a wide range of industrial application such as rollers, wheels, gaskets, seals, rods and custom designed parts. Polyurethane solid rubber rods and cubes can be machined on CNC Turning Centre and VMC.
Polyurethane offers Flexibility and Elasticity yet sturdy and durable property. Also known for its unique property of chemical, water and UV resistance, insulation, thermal stability, variety of hardness, abrasion resistance, impact resistance, high tear and tensile strength.
Hardness: Polyurethane property offers a wide range of hardness from 35 Shore A to 85 Shore D.
High Load Bearing Capacity: Polyurethane has a high load capacity in both tension and compression. Polyurethane may change its shape under a heavy load, but will return to its original shape once the load is removed with little compression set in the material when designed properly for a specific application.
Flexibility: Polyurethanes perform very well when used in high flex fatigue applications.
Abrasion & Impact Resistance: For applications where severe wear is a big problem where polyurethane is an ideal solution even at low temperatures.
Tear Resistance: Polyurethanes possess high tear resistance along with high tensile properties.
Resistance to Water, Oil & Grease: Polyurethane's material properties will remain stable (with minimal swelling) in water, oil and grease.
Electrical Properties: Polyurethanes exhibit good electrical insulating properties.
Strong Bonding Properties: Polyurethane can be bonded well to metal materials. This property makes polyurethane an ideal polymer for PU to metal bonded parts, Wheels, Rollers and inserts.
Performance in Harsh Environments: Polyurethane is very good resistant to extreme temperature and sustains harsh environmental conditions and many chemicals.
Color Ranges: Polyurethane offers a wide range of colors and provides a better color stability in outdoor applications.
Economical Manufacturing Process: Polyurethane is often used to manufacture one-off parts, prototypes or high volume, repeat production runs.
Short Production Lead Times: Compared to conventional rubber and thermoplastic materials, polyurethane has a relatively short lead time with significantly more economical die-mould tooling cost.
