Ryton^® PPS is an ideal choice for automotive parts exposed to high temperatures, automotive fluids, or mechanical stress. Typical applications include under hood components, brake systems, and electrical/electronic devices requiring high heat resistance, high dimensional stability, and corrosion resistance. Ryton^® PPS is a lighter weight alternative to metals that is resistant to corrosion by salts and all automotive fluids. The ability to mold complex parts to tight tolerances and insert molding capability accommodate multiple component integration. See how Ryton^® PPS can help you meet your fuel economy requirements, system integration goals, and cost targets.
