One of the standout features of PU-001 is its exceptional tear and abrasion resistance, making it ideal for demanding environments. It boasts high elongation at break (over 400 %), allowing for flexible and durable applications. Additionally, it demonstrates strong resistance to UV rays, ensuring longevity in outdoor or harsh conditions. Its easy processing capabilities make it an attractive option for professionals looking to streamline production without sacrificing material performance.

PU-001 excels in a wide range of applications, especially in emergency maintenance and repair work. It is highly effective for manufacturing damping protective parts such as silent blocks and shock absorbers. The material is also well-suited for producing seals and covers used in surface technologies like sandblasting and shot blasting. Furthermore, it is an excellent choice for prototyping flexible elements, allowing designers to test form and function effectively before production. PU-001 is an indispensable material for enhancing complex industrial designs with reliability and precision.
