PAI Rod

PAI rod (polyamide-imide) is a high-performance plastic known for its exceptional impact and compressive strength. It maintains excellent creep resistance, rigidity, and mechanical integrity across a wide temperature range. This material also delivers outstanding dimensional stability and features superior dielectric strength alongside excellent electrical insulation properties.

Henry Gallacher offers expert machining services to transform polyamide-imide rod into custom components tailored to your specifications.

Applications

Commonly utilised in electrical connectors, insulators, mechanical linkages, and seal rings within sectors such as aerospace, automotive, and oil and gas.
