Material: PPH - Polypropylene Homo-Polymer

Polypropylene's lightweight properties, temperature and chemical resistance and low friction surface make it an excellent modern replacement for more traditional materials such as metal and wood.High mechanical strength and tensile strength but a low notched impact strength. Polypropylene resists stress cracking and is easy to weld. The homo-polymer polypropylene offers higher rigidity, temperature limits and chemical resistance than the co-polymer.
