Advantages of Polyurethane over Metal and Plastic

The experienced professionals at Universal Urethane Products understand the versatile nature of polyurethane and are excited about all of its many possible uses in a wide variety of industries around the world. No other elastomeric material can match the flexibility of polyurethane, especially its chemical characteristics which enable it to be manipulated in numerous ways, creating innovative solutions to complex issues. At Universal Urethane Products, we understand how to manipulate urethane and its chemical properties in order to create solutions to your company’s most difficult problem.

When compared to rubber, polyurethane offers some of the following benefits:

  • Resistance to cutting and tearing
  • Greater load bearing capability
  • Improved ability to be cast in a mold or other form
  • Increased resistance to abrasion
  • Resistance to oil
  • Colorfastness
  • Resistant to ozone
  • Resistant to radiation
  • Thick section molding
  • Broader hardness range
  • Low pressure tooling


When compared to steel, brass, and aluminum, polyurethane offers some of the following benefits:

  • Resistant to corrosion
  • Cheaper to create
  • Simple to cast or form
  • Resistant to abrasion
  • Will not produce a spark
  • Flexible and pliable
  • Does not conduct electricity
  • Retains its shape
  • Resistant to impact
  • Allows for quieter operation
  • Weighs less
