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.
-
Acrylic Plastic Sheets & Bars
Commonly known as Plexiglass, Acrylic is a clear material that is inherently resistant to scratching and abrasion.
-
Polycarbonate Plastic Sheets & Bars
Clear material with excellent resistance to impact, shock, and strikes.
-
Acetal Plastic Sheets & Bars
Easiest to machine plastic and is highly resistant to wear and abrasion.
-
UHMW Polyethylene Plastic Sheets & Bars
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.
-
HDPE Plastic Sheets & Bars
Extremely moisture resistant material with good wear and impact resistance. Stronger and stiffer than LDPE.
-
Nylon Plastic Sheets & Bars
Characterized by a slippery surface that reduces wear and abrasion.
-
ABS Plastic Sheets & Bars
Has excellent impact strength to withstand strikes and shocks. It is also easy to thermoform.
-
PVC Plastic Sheets & Bars
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 Sheets & Bars
Economical plastic material with moderate resistance to water and chemicals.
-
Polystyrene Plastic Sheets & Bars
Economical plastic material that is easy to thermoform.
-
PTFE Plastic Sheets & Bars
Commonly known as Teflon, PTFE is the most slippery and wear resistant plastic. It also offers excellent resistance to chemicals and extreme temperatures.
