Polyurethane (PU)
Elastomeric resilience with exceptional abrasion resistance
Polyurethane (PU) elastomers bridge the gap between rubber and plastic — offering rubber-like flexibility with plastic-like durability, available across a range of Shore hardness grades. MK Industrial & Co.® supplies PU sheets and rods across Bangalore and Karnataka.
About Polyurethane (PU)
Polyurethane (PU) is an elastomer that combines rubber-like flexibility with plastic-like durability, offering high abrasion resistance, high load-bearing capacity, and good impact resistance while remaining chemically resistant and stable across a wide temperature range.
MK Industrial & Co.® stocks PU sheets and rods across a range of Shore hardness grades — available in standard dimensions and custom cut-to-size across Bangalore and Karnataka.
PU is widely specified in material handling (conveyor belts, pallets and skids), manufacturing and machinery (bushings, bearings, rollers and wheels), automotive and transportation (suspension components, bumpers and buffers), and construction (concrete molds and form liners).
