Urethane Rectangular Bars – Impact Resistant Bars!
Urethane rectangular bars are made of tough, crack and abrasion-resistant polyurethane, which generally lasts longer than rubber and plastic. They have a greater load-bearing capacity, higher abrasion, and tighter tolerances. There are numerous reasons why urethane rectangular bars are chosen over rubber and plastics.
