RADEL®

Ideally suited for steam-intensive sterilization techniques in the medical industry.

Radel withstands the high-performance demands of the medical industry, including repeated steam autoclaving at high temperatures, with no loss of dimensional stability. Its impact resistance and light weight make it especially suitable for medical, dental and surgical instrumentation. Radel also exhibits exceptional dielectric properties, extending its utility into electronics manufacturing and assembly.
