Polypropylene U-Channels
- Color: White
- Temperature Range: 45° to 210° F
- Tensile Strength: 4,060-4,930 psi (Poor)
- Impact Strength: 0.9-1.9 ft.-lbs./in. (Poor)
- Hardness: Rockwell R80-R90 (Hard)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: UL 94HB
Often used when fabricating guide rails and parts for use in laboratories, these U-channels have a hard, slippery surface that cuts easily without binding. Polypropylene won’t swell when exposed to water and is a good electrical insulator.
Polypropylene 90° Angles
- Color: Semi-Clear White
- Temperature Range: -40° to 180° F
- Tensile Strength: 5,200 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 1.5 ft.-lbs./in. (Poor)
- Hardness: Rockwell R110 (Hard)
- For Use Outdoors: No
- Specifications Met: Made of FDA Listed Material
Fabricate guide rails and parts for use in laboratories with these 90° angles. They’re polypropylene, so they have a hard, slippery surface that won’t stick to cutting tools. They also resist swelling when exposed to water.
