About

Polypropylene (PP) is a versatile thermoplastic that offers excellent chemical resistance, low friction, and high fatigue resistance. It is commonly used in applications that require lightweight and durable parts. PP is known for its excellent resistance to acids, bases, and solvents, and it performs well at low temperatures. CNC machined PP parts are used in a wide range of industries, including automotive, medical devices, consumer goods, and food packaging. Applications include storage containers, fluid handling components, gears, and seals. Its low moisture absorption and electrical insulating properties make it suitable for electrical components and marine environments where corrosion resistance is critical.
