Distributor of Ryton Plastic in Sheet, Rod, Bar and Brushing

Ryton Plastic PolyPhenylene Sulfide (PPS) offers the broadest resistance to chemicals of any advanced engineering plastic.

They have no known solvents below 392°F (200°C) and are inert to steam, strong bases, fuels and acids.

Minimal moisture absorption and a very low coefficient of linear thermal expansion, combined with stress-relieving manufacturing, make PPS ideally suited for precise tolerance machined components.
