Polypropylene Rods

Polypropylene is an economical material that offers a combination of outstanding physical, chemical, mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. Compared to low or high-density polyethylene, it has superior working temperature and tensile strength. Agpha polypropylene rods provide excellent resistance to organic solvents, degreasing agents and electrolytic attack. They are light in weight, resistant to staining, and have a low moisture absorption rate. These rods are tough, heat-resistant and ideal for the transfer of hot liquids or gases, having excellent resistance against acids and alkalis. Applications: used for impellers in chemical pumps, flanges in chemical lines, pulleys, and various machine parts. Sizes manufactured: round – 19 mm to 230 mm dia (PPHP and PPCP). Established in 1981, Agpha Rubber & Plastics specialises in manufacturing of round and square rounds of various engineering polymers. The company also extrudes welding rods made of PP. The standard size is 3 mm and is supplied in coil form.
