TPE's are a family of polymers that can be repeatedly stretched without permanently deforming the shape of the part. Unlike rubber-like elastomers, they do not require curing or vulcanization, as they are true thermoplastics.
Application: Automotive, building and construction, soft touch grips and handles, caster treads and rollers.
