Vespel rod

Polyimide rod (PI) – Vespel‘s unfilled base resin provides maximum physical strength and toughness. Also known as Vespel rod, the material is widely found in semiconductor applications.

Tough yet compliant Vespel parts perform consistently in a variety of physical environments that cause common materials to fail. Where trouble-free operation is key to commercial success, Vespel parts can help keep your product running reliably.
