Arnite® PET

Brand Information

Arnite® PET engineering plastics from Envalior are designed for applications that require a reliable balance of strength, stiffness, dimensional stability and processing efficiency. The material’s low moisture absorption helps support consistent part performance, making Arnite® PET suitable for precision-moulded components used across automotive, electrical and electronic, industrial and consumer applications.

For manufacturers looking for a PET engineering plastic with stable mechanical properties and efficient processing behaviour, Arnite® PET offers a strong option for parts where accuracy, repeatability and long-term reliability are important.

What is Arnite® PET?

Arnite® A PET is a high-performance polyethylene terephthalate (PET) engineering plastic from Envalior. Combining mechanical strength, stiffness, dimensional stability and efficient processing, Arnite® PET is suitable for applications where precision, consistent part quality and reliable long-term performance are essential.

The Arnite® A PET portfolio includes unreinforced grades, glass-fibre-reinforced PET grades and flame-retardant PET solutions. This provides designers and processors with flexibility when selecting materials for structural components, dimension-critical parts and applications with demanding electrical or fire-safety requirements.

Key benefits of Arnite® PET

• High mechanical strength and rigidity

• Excellent dimensional stability

• Low moisture absorption

• Good chemical resistance

• Good heat and heat-ageing resistance

• High creep resistance

• Good flow and processing characteristics

• Unreinforced and glass-fibre-reinforced PET grades

• Flame-retardant PET solutions

• Selected grades with low outgassing

• Suitable for high-precision injection-moulded components

These properties make Arnite® PET relevant for components that must maintain shape, tolerances and performance under demanding production and end-use conditions.

Arnite® PET for automotive applications

Arnite® A PET is used in automotive applications where high strength, dimensional stability, low moisture absorption and reliable mechanical performance are required. This makes it suitable for precision parts where consistent fit, function and durability are important.

Typical automotive applications include brake booster valve bodies, actuator housings, power steering enclosures, automotive sensors, connectors, E-Boxes and other precision automotive components.

Selected Arnite® PET grades are designed for applications where tight tolerances and stable dimensions are critical. Because the material absorbs little moisture, it can help maintain dimensional stability and mechanical performance under ambient conditions.

Arnite® PET for electrical and electronic applications

For electrical and electronic components, Arnite® PET offers a useful combination of mechanical strength, dimensional stability, electrical properties and processing efficiency.

The portfolio includes flame-retardant PET grades for applications where fire safety requirements are important. These materials can be considered for connectors, sensors, electrical housings, control devices and other precision-moulded components that require stable mechanical, electrical and flame-retardant performance.

Reinforced Arnite® PET

For applications that need higher stiffness and mechanical strength, the Arnite® A PET portfolio includes glass-fibre-reinforced PET grades. These grades can provide enhanced mechanical and thermal performance compared with unreinforced PET, making them suitable for demanding structural and dimension-critical components.

Depending on the selected grade, Arnite® PET can also offer additional performance features such as low outgassing, high creep resistance, improved dimensional stability and increased resistance to demanding environmental conditions.
