General Info
XtremeEPP ™ 1889 ETP is an Engineered Thermoplastic Foam, this material is unique in many ways. This material offers weight savings of greater than 45% when compared to polymers like Delrin® or PVC with better dimensional stability. The low density also means lower thermal conductivity, specific heat and dielectric constant than solid polymers. These improved properties translate to better electrical and thermal insulation and higher dimensional stability at elevated temperatures.
Key Properties
- Low Thermal Conductivity
- Light Weight
- Electrical Insulator
- Good Structural Properties
- Excellent Dimensional Stability
Limitations
- Not Intended For Bearing Applications
Applications
- Structural Components
- Thermal Insulating Components
- Weight Reduction Metal Replacement Structural Applications

Manufacturer Trade Names
Boedeker Plastics, Inc. stocks & supplies plastic sheet, rod, tube, film and custom profiles and machine parts from these shapes that are produced from plastic resin. In many cases the manufacturer of the shape has their own product trade name. If your specification calls for a specific resin grade or manufacturer trade name, we can supply a shape made from that resin to meet your specification or suggest an equal. If you require a specific resin or brand it must be specified at the time of order.
