This material offers an optimal combination of mechanical strength, stiffness, toughness, mechanical damping properties and wear resistance. These properties, together with good electrical insulating properties and a good chemical resistance make Ertalon® 6 SA a “general purpose” grade for mechanical construction and maintenance.
Additionally, Ertalon® 6 SA stock shapes are also available in our Food Grade programme, which means that they can be supplied with a declaration of compliance, confirming they comply with the requirements mentioned in the European Regulations (EC) No 1935/2004 and (EU) 10/2011. The composition of the raw materials used for the manufacture of Ertalon® 6 SA stock shapes also comply with the regulations of the United States of America [FDA] for plastic materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs.
