Additional Specifications |
In addition to having a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough, impact- and wear-resistant material handles the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastic can’t. These sheets are often used to make machine guards and chute liners. They are all FDA compliant for direct food contact.
