LOAD BEARING CAPACITY This is the most common application for the high load and impact resistant urethanes. We'll attempt to provide a considerable amount of information within the constraints of this Guide. There is much more information available to you, however -- just call us with your questions. The urethanes have an unusually high load bearing capacity relative to all other elastomers. They have deflection and recovery capabilities possessed by no other plastic or metal. NEXT: Fatigue
