Bimetallic Barrel for PET & rPET

Virgin PET attacks with acetic-family by-products; rPET adds sand, paper and PVC contamination on top. Our PET-duty bimetallic barrel carries a corrosion-resistant alloy lining that handles both — the standard choice for rPET preform and sheet lines.

Bored and honed to Ø300 with matched screws available. Send the resin (virgin / rPET ratio) and machine model and we quote barrel, screw or set.

Applications for This Bimetallic Screw Barrel

Common Questions

Questions Buyers Ask About This Product

Is bimetallic necessary for virgin PET?

Not always — nitrided survives virgin duty; rPET is where the corrosion-plus-contamination combination makes bimetallic the economical choice.

Can you reline our PET barrel?

If the body is sound, yes — we measure first and quote relining honestly where it is worth it.

Matched screw included?

Available — for PET we recommend a matched set so clearance and valve wear age together.
