GEHR Plastics PVC-ELS Polyvinylchloride, Electrically Conductive Grade
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Vinyl (PVC); PVC, Extruded

Material Notes: Polyvinyl chloride is a flame retardant material with an exceptional chemical resistance and also with lower stress cracking. PVC-U shows high mechanical strength, tensile strength and the continuous operating temperature is from -15°C to 60°C. It can also be easily solvent, cemented and welded.

Properties include:

  • High mechanical strength, tensile strength and hardness
  • Good insulation properties for electronics
  • High chemical resistance
  • Self-extinguishing
  • Low water absorption
  • Easy to varnish and glue
  • Low impact strength
  • Limited weather resistance
Applications include:
  • Pumps and valve body
  • Gaskets
  • Bearing cages
  • Pipe lines
  • Hand pump pipes
  • Brush basic body
  • Parts in the dental medicine
  • Seat strips
  • Pipes for the mounting of kerfs
  • Lamp box
