What is PVDF Rod?

PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) Rods are high-performance thermoplastic materials known for their outstanding resistance to chemicals, acids, and solvents, combined with excellent mechanical and thermal properties. They maintain structural integrity under extreme temperatures and aggressive conditions, making them a preferred choice in chemical, electrical, and industrial engineering applications.

Petron Thermoplast’s PVDF rods are precision extruded and available in multiple grades, ensuring consistency, durability, and superior surface finish for both machined components and industrial assemblies.
