RS PRO Black Glass-Reinforced Plastic GRP Rod, 1m x 50mm Diameter, Стержень

RS PRO Black Glass-Reinforced Plastic GRP Rod, 1 m x 50 mm Diameter

Need to create high-quality engineering components? Choose this black nylon rod from RS PRO. Its nylon 66 material is easy to machine, so it's suitable for a wide range of applications. A high impact strength and its 30% glass filling ensure stiffness for long-lasting performance.


The rod is UL HB (Underwriters' Laboratories Horizontal Burning) certified, which means it will burn very slowly when exposed to flames. This makes it a safe choice for environments prone to fire hazards. It's also chemically resistant and can withstand temperatures of up to +110°C, making it a good choice for heavy-duty applications. This type of rod is commonly used in food processing and packaging machinery, as well as for gears, wheels and bearings in aerospace equipment.
