About ERTALYTE®

ERTALYTE® (PET-P) is an unfilled polyester manufactured from proprietary resin grades by Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Materials. ERTALYTE® is characterized as having the best dimensional stability coupled with excellent wear resistance, a 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. It retains significantly more of its original strength up to 180°F (85°C) than nylon or acetal.

In addition, ERTALYTE® PET-P offers good chemical and abrasion resistance. Its low moisture absorption enables mechanical and electrical properties to remain virtually unaffected by moisture. ERTALYTE® is FDA, USDA and 3A-Dairy compliant.
