Details

Arnite® A PET is a high-performance engineering plastic that combines high strength and rigidity with excellent processing characteristics. As a result, Arnite® A PET is well suited for a broad range of applications, including brake booster valve bodies because it enables very tight tolerances (0.03 mm) due to strict GF production specs. Arnite® A PET offers great dimensional stability due to zero moisture uptake. With a proven track record among various OEMs for more than 20 years, Arnite® A PET and its successor Arnite XT are used in other dimensional critical applications in a variety of unreinforced, reinforced, and flame retardant grades.
