Plastics
Plastics are lightweight, strong, and highly durable materials. Plastics are electrical insulators and have broad range of physical and chemical properties depending on its composition. Plastics are commonly fabricated into machinery parts, assembly components, guards and covers, tanks and housings, signs, and much more.
-
Acetal Plastic Rods & Discs
Easiest to machine plastic and is highly resistant to wear and abrasion.
-
UHMW Polyethylene Plastic Rods & Discs
Offers excellent impact resistance and a slippery surface that reduces abrasion and wear. In addition, it is a strong electrical insulator and resistant to moisture and chemicals.
-
Nylon Plastic Rods & Discs
Characterized by a slippery surface that reduces wear and abrasion.
-
ABS Plastic Rods & Discs
Has excellent impact strength to withstand strikes and shocks. It is also easy to thermoform.
-
PVC Plastic Rods & Discs
Strong and stiff material that is chemically resistant to acids, bases, and alcohols. It is also easy to machine and thermoform, and easy to join using solvents and adhesives.
-
Polypropylene Plastic Rods & Discs
Economical plastic material with moderate resistance to water and chemicals.
-
PTFE Plastic Rods & Discs
Commonly known as Teflon, PTFE is the most slippery and wear resistant plastic. It also offers excellent resistance to chemicals and extreme temperatures.
