Ertalyte Sheets Product Line

Johnston Industrial Plastics supplies ertalyte rods in several dimensions. They feature excellent wear resistance, a low coefficient of friction, high modulus, low creep and outstanding dimensional stability. Ertalyte also offers good chemical and abrasion resistance, and its mechanical and electrical properties are almost unaffected by ambient moisture. Ertalyte is especially suitable for the manufacturing of mechanical precision parts and, with its FDA approval, for food contact applications. Its melting point is 83ºC higher than that of acetal, and its continuous service temperature is 10% higher. 

Ertalyte Sheets Industrial Applications

Customers in various industries have used our ertalyte rods to manufacture food contact parts, insulators, valve parts, bearings, seals, test equipment manifolds and more. Our customers work in a wide variety of industries, including the chemical, aerospace, automotive, food and beverage, and tooling industries.
