PET-P (Polyesters)
PET-P (polyethylene terephtalate), commonly referred to as ‘Polyesters’, are crystalline thermoplastics (of which Quadrant’s range are marketed under the trade names Ertalyte and Ertalyte TX). PET-P offers excellent wear resistance, exceptionally good dimensional stability and one of the lowest water absorption rates of any plastic material.
The term ‘Polyester’ also refers to PBT (polybutylene terephtalate), although this variation is more popular in North America than in Europe.
Ertalyte
(Colours: Natural (White), Black)
The specific properties of this virgin crystalline PET make it specially suitable for the manufacture of mechanical precision parts which have to sustain high loads and/or are subject to wear.

Ertalyte TX
(Colours: Pale grey only)
Ertalyte TX is a polyethylene terephtalate compound incorporating a uniformly dispersed solid lubricant. Its specific formulation yields a premium, internally lubricated bearing-grade. Ertalyte TX has not only an outstanding wear resistance, but offers in comparison with Ertalyte an even lower coefficient of friction as well as higher Pressure-Velocity capabilities.
