Special Grades
Glass Reinforced Polyester - GR
Colour options:
Glass reinforced polyester is a material with an extremely high resistance to wear and heat.
Glass Reinforced Polypropylene - AR
Colour options:
AR is an acid resistant material which is used where very high chemical resistance is required. The limited mechanical strength of polypropy-
lene is considerably improved by the glass fiber reinforcement.
Antistatic Material - AS
Colour options:
Electrically conductive acetal is used where the build-up of static electricity must be avoided e.g. in the aerosol and electronics industry.
Polycarbonate - PC
Colour options:
Polycarbonate is characterized by being extremely impact resistant, even at low temperatures.
Flame Retardant Polyamide - FR
Colour options:
Flame retardant polyamide is a fire restricting material used in surroundings with the danger of being ignited the chain.
Polyvinylidenfluoride - PVDF
Colour options:
Polyvinylidenfluoride is characterized by a specially high chemical resistance. Furthermore PVDF has high wear resistance and good
friction properties.
Polyamide - PA6
Colour options:
Polyamide PA6 is a thermoplastic material. The combination of mechanical properties and chemical resistance makes this material suitable
for many situations. Polyamide has a high resistance of dynamic loads and a high wear resistance.
Polyamide - PA6.6
Colour options:
Polyamide PA6.6 is a thermoplastic material with many fine properties. The material has a high resistance to wear and high strength and
great stiffness. Furthermore polyamide has a large temperature area.
Note: Max permissible working load is reduced by 50% when using AS and AR. For all other special materials, please contact uni-chains
for permissible working load.
Please contact uni-chains if materials other than those listed above are needed.
