THE BENEFITS
OF RHINO HYDE®
ARE UNDENIABLE.
Whatever your industry, whatever the application, choosing the toughest urethane isn’t a tough choice to make. The open cast process produces product that lasts about 2 times longer than injection-molded process (TPUs).
Rhino Hyde thermoset urethanes are superior to thermoplastic urethanes (TPUs) simply due to their basic chemistry. Take a look at how they stack up.
RHINO HYDE THERMOSET URETHANE
ORDINARY TPUs
CONSIST OF LONG FLEXIBLE MOLECULES (TRUE ELASTOMER)
LITTLE TO NO CROSS-LINKING MOLECULES
FEATURE A BETTER CROSS-LINKED CHEMICAL
CAN MELT IN HIGH TEMPS
CAN’T BE MELTED OR REFORMED
LESS LOAD BEARING CAPACITY
HIGHER DURABILITY
LIKELY TO TEAR IN ABRASIVE APPLICATIONS

Rhino Hyde
urethane
features
better:
- ABRASION PROPERTIES
Shields against wearing, grinding, or rubbing away by friction, therefore reducing downtimes.
- ELASTOMERIC MEMORY
Ability to hold, store and maintain shape under severe conditions.
- IMPACT RESISTANCE
Ability to withstand intense force or shock applied to it over a short time period by use of elements that capture and absorb energy.
- VIBRATION DAMPENING
Underdamped vibration ratios by absorption of vibration energy, securing against equipment fatigue and damage.
- LOAD BEARING CAPACITY
High load-bearing capacity with deflecting and recovering capabilities exceeding plastics and metals.
- TEAR STRENGTH
Incredible tear-resistance.
