Excellent wear resistance [comparable with or even better than nylon
grades]
Moderate impact strength
Very good dimensional stability [better than polyacetal]
Excellent stain resistance
Better resistance to acids than nylon or polyacetal
Good electrical insulating properties
Physiologically inert [suitable for food contact]
Good resistance to high energy radiation [gamma and X-rays]
Since PET is relatively notch and impact-sensitive, all internal corners
should have a radius (R > 1 mm).
To prevent edge chipping during turning, boring, or milling, chamfered
edges are recommended, providing a smoother transition between the
cutting tool and the plastic workpiece.
