While aluminum and steel are common materials in which they are made, pull handles are available in thermoplastic as well, such as Duroplast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally developed by Wolfgang Barthel\u00a0in the 1950s, Duroplastic is a type of heat-set resin plastic. When used in the construction of pull handles, Duroplast offers several benefits, including the following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Corrosion Resistant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You don&#8217;t have to worry about Duraplast handles corroding. As a type of thermoplastic, Duroplast isn&#8217;t susceptible to corrosion. Corrosion is the result of oxidative damage in metals and alloys. Duroplast consists primarily of phenol resin, so it won&#8217;t rust or corrode. You can use Duroplast handles outdoors or in humid or wet environments without fear of them succumbing to corrosion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scratch Resistant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Duroplast handles are resistant to scratches. This is one of the ways in which it&#8217;s distinguished from standard plastic. While many other types of plastic will easily scratch, crack or even chip, Duroplast will not. The &#8220;durable&#8221; properties of Duraplast make it a popular choice for pull handles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Multiple Bushing Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find Duroplast handles with different types of bushings. Some of them have a brass bushing, whereas others have a galvanized steel bushing. Brass and galvanized steel are both strong, durable materials that offer a high level of protection against corrosion. Galvanized steel, however, is slightly stronger, while brass is slightly more corrosion resistant. Nonetheless, you can&#8217;t go wrong with either of these bushing options when choosing a Duroplast handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aesthetics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Duroplast handles are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing. They can be molded into various shapes, sizes and textures, allowing for sleek designs. Duroplast handles are also available in stylish finishes. Many of them feature a deburred and high-polished finish, which enhances their overall appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Built to Last<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can rest assured knowing that Duroplast handles are long-lasting. They won&#8217;t rust or corrode, nor will they easily scratch or otherwise sustain physical damage. Duroplast handles are tough and built to last. As a result, they&#8217;ve become a popular choice for industrial machinery and equipment. Even when used on a regular basis in harsh environments, they won&#8217;t fail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Duroplast handles offer several benefits. They are corrosion resistant, scratch resistant, available in multiple bushing options, aesthetically pleasing, and they are built to last. Just remember to choose a handle that matches the application for which you intend to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not all pull handles are made of metal.
