Nylon 12
High-impact material with low moisture absorption and good noise and vibration dampening properties.
151Kb
Nylon 6 and 66
General-purpose wear resistant engineering nylons available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. Nylon 66 is harder and stronger than nylon 6 whereas Nylon 6 absorbs slightly more moisture from the surrounding environment, which increases its impact strength. The chemical name is polyamide.
155Kb
Cast Nylon
A general-purpose wear resistant engineering plastic material available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. The casting process allows the production of larger material sections virtually free from residual stress. It may also be cast into customer shapes that reduce material waste and machining time. The chemical name is polyamide.
154Kb
Polyethylene - PE-HD and PE-UHMW
General purpose tough, chemical resistant engineering plastic materials available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. The chemical name is polyethylene.
151Kb
PEEK
A very high-performance engineering plastic material available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. The chemical name is PolyEtherEtherKetone.
155Kb
PET
A wear-resistant engineering plastic. It is a crystalline material, a member of the polyester family of plastics, which should not be confused with the clear, amorphous version used to make bottles for carbonated drinks. PET exhibits particularly good dimensional stability and is available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. The chemical name polyethylene terephthalate.
150Kb
Acetal POM-C and POM-H (Delrin)
A general purpose engineering plastic material available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. The chemical name is polyoxymethylene.
157Kb
Polypropylene
General purpose engineering plastic material available in a range of grades and forms to suit many applications. The chemical name is polypropylene homopolymer.
152Kb
PTFE
A high performance, low friction, engineering plastic material with exceptional resistance to a wide variety of chemicals. It is used in some of the most arduous industrial applications. The chemical name is Polytetrafluoroethylene.
147Kb
PVC-u
PVC-u (u = unplasticised, or rigid PVC) is a flame retardant material with exceptional chemical resistance and low stress cracking. PVC-u shows high mechanical strength for continuous operating between -15°C and +60°C. The chemical name is Polyvinyl chloride.
154Kb
PVDF and E-CTFE
PVDF - fluoropolymer material (chemical name is polyvinylidene fluoride) with higher strength, pressure resistance and dimensional stability than PTFE.
E-CTFE (Halar®) - a very pure fluoropolymer material (chemical name is ethylen-chlortrifluorethylene) with excellent corrosion and weather resistance, outstanding firesafe properties and a particularly smooth surface.
E-CTFE also has permeation resistance to oxygen, carbon dioxide, chlorine gas and hydrochloric acid that is 10 to 100 times better than PTFE.
