Polypropylene Rods

Product Description

Polypropylene (PP) is light, strong and has resistance to chemicals and has a low friction surface, all of which make it ideal as a replacement for wood or metal which are the materials traditionally used. PP is a high corrosion resistant material, which exhibits excellent tensile strength and stiffness at elevated temperatures.

Features
