Cable Ties

Because Elastollan is notable for its elastic memory and excellent abrasion/cut/tear resistance, it is particularly well suited for use in cable ties.

Suggested products: Elastollan S Series, Elastollan C Series.

Caster Wheels

Abrasion and mar resistance, load-bearing ability, a quiet roll, chemical/oil resistance, adhesion to inserts and low-temperature flexibility all contribute to Elastollan’s stand-out performance in caster wheel manufacturing.

Suggested products: Elastollan S Series, Elastollan B Series.

Conveyor Belts

When used to manufacture conveyor belts, Elastollan provides outstanding tear/cut/abrasion resistance, high puncture resistance, long-term flexibility, low-temperature flexibility, washability and hydrolytic stability.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan 800 Series, Elastollan C Series, Customized Products (FR-TPU Compounds, PDF)

Conveyer Hoses

Exceptional tear/cut/abrasion resistance, high puncture resistance, long-term flexibility and low-temperature flexibility are among the qualities Elastollan brings to the manufacture of conveyor hoses. And BASF’s polyester-grade Elastollan is particularly suitable for fuel conveyor hoses.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan 600 Series, Elastollan S Series.

Drive Belts

Abrasion/tear/cut resistance, high puncture resistance and low-temperature and long-term flexibility are all crucial for the manufacture of drive belts, and Elastollan showcases all of these traits and more.

Suggested product: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan C Series.

Dunnage

Shipping goods requires dunnage that has superior flexibility, elastic memory and abrasion/cut/tear resistance, and Elastollan can impart all of those important qualities.

Suggested products: Elastollan S Series, Elastollan B Series.

Escalator Handrails

Elastollan qualities that assist in the high-quality production of escalator handrails include abrasion/tear/cut resistance, oil resistance, long-term flexibility and low-temperature flexibility.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series.

Hydraulic Hoses

When used to manufacture hydraulic hoses, Elastollan is notable for its ability to impart fuel/oil resistance, low-temperature flexibility, abrasion/cut/tear resistance, puncture resistance, hydrolytic stability, creep resistance and high-temperature resistance.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan C Series.

Ink Rollers

With traits such as abrasion and mar resistance, good load-bearing characteristics, a quiet roll, chemical and oil resistance, low-temperature flexibility and the ability to adhere strongly to inserts, Elastollan is perfect for ink rollers.

Suggested products: Elastollan S Series, Elastollan B Series

Living Hinges

Top-quality living hinges benefit from Elastollan traits such as tear/cut/abrasion resistance, flex-fatigue resistance, resistance to oil, and long-term and low-temperature flexibility.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan 600 Series.

Pneumatic Hoses & Brake Tubes

Top-rated pneumatic hoses and brake tubes can be easily produced using Elastollan, which adds abrasion/tear/cut/puncture resistance, high burst pressure, high elasticity and coil retention, long-term flexibility, oil/fuel resistance, low-temperature flexibility and hydrolytic stability.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan C Series.

Roller Wheels

Roller wheels made from Elastollan are enhanced by the TPU’s abrasion and mar resistance, load-bearing abilities, quiet roll characteristics, chemical and oil resistance, ability to adhere to inserts and low-temperature flexibility.

Suggested products: Elastollan S Series, Elastollan B Series.

Spiral Hoses

Manufacturers who take Elastollan for a spin will find it ideal for spiral hoses, providing great long-term and low-temperature flexibility, the ability to be certified by NSF, great abrasion/tear/cut resistance and hydrolytic stability.

Suggested products: Elastollan 1100 Series, Elastollan C Series.
