• ✔️ Superior machinability – lathe, CNC, drilling

• ✔️ Low friction and good dimensional stability

• ✔️ Resistant to oil, solvents, and moderate chemicals

• ✔️ Good thermal resistance

• ✔️ Flame retardant grade available (on request)

• ✔️ Working temperature: Up to 120°C continuous use

Applications:

• Terminal boards and insulating parts

• Mechanical bushes and wear parts

• Gears, pulleys, and jigs

• Electrical switchgear and control panels

• Transformer insulation spacers

• Automotive and textile machinery components
