DuPont™ Vespel® delivers a new level of performance for hot handling of glass containers and bottles. The unique properties of DuPont™ Vespel® exhibit lower thermal conductivity and oil absorption while offering higher impact and wear resistance than conventional glass handling components. This helps increase plant reliability and lower costs.
DuPont™ Vespel® has 50 to 100 times lower coefficient of thermal conductivity versus traditional glass grade of graphite which minimizes checks in glass containers.
DuPont™ Vespel® Glass Handling Technology consists of 2 material offerings: Vespel® SCP-5050 and Vespel® SP-22 which are available in finished custom Parts, semi-finished blanks and plaque.
Higher Impact Resistance means
DuPont™ Vespel® take-out inserts offer 10 times improvement in life versus standard glass handling grade of carbon graphite.
DuPont™ Vespel® components used at the Veda-Pack glass packaging plant in St. Petersburg, Russia met hot glass handling challenges by delivering significantly longer life.
