About Plastic

Color: Natural
Maximum Temperature: 200° F
Tensile Strength: 4,000 psi (Poor)
Impact Strength: Not Rated
Hardness: Rockwell R69 (Medium)
For Use Outdoors: Yes
Specifications Met: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.1520, UL 94 HB

Package food, textiles, and other products in wet environments. This film won’t absorb or swell from water. It’s also FDA compliant, so it’s safe to directly touch food. This film keeps its shape at room temperature. When heated, it softens evenly and won’t warp, making it a good choice for heat sealing and applications that involve shaping with pressure and heat.

Polypropylene Sheets and Bars

Because these sheets and bars resist swelling when exposed to water, they’re often fabricated into containers and parts for laboratory equipment. Polypropylene has a hard, slippery surface that won’t bind or stick to cutting tools, plus it provides good electrical insulation.
