Polyethylene terephthalate (Ensitep^®)

Ensitep^® is an unreinforced, semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyester derived from polyethylene terephthalate. Its excellent wear resistance, low coefficient of friction, high flexural modulus and superior dimensional stability make it a versatile material for designing mechanical and electrical-mechanical parts. Because Ensitep has no centerline porosity, the possibility of fluid absorption and leakage is virtually eliminated.
