AKU®-LEN PP-R hollow bars made of PP-R up to 2800 mm

Polypropylene has good stiffness, hardness and strength, but low impact resistance.
PP-R is not prone to stress cracking and is easy to weld.
However, embrittlement occurs at sub-zero temperatures.
The chemical and electrical properties are very good.
The
continuous service temperature ranges from approximately -5°C to approximately +70°C.

Polypropylene Random Copolymer (PP-R) is used where PE 100 is not suitable: at elevated operating temperatures, in aggressive chemical media, or if the component is to be subsequently hot-welded.

PP-R is lighter than PE 100, has higher stiffness at room temperature, and better resistance to a wide range of acids, alkalis, and organic compounds.

As a semi-finished product for machining, PP-R behaves somewhat more brittle than PE.

Outside diameter up to 2800 mm, inside diameter up to 2000 mm.
From outside diameter 1900 mm, custom production is required
