A layer of soft LDPE is sandwiched between two thin layers of aluminum for strength and rigidity.

Because this polypropylene resists swelling when exposed to water, it’s often fabricated into containers and parts for laboratory equipment.

Widely used in semiconductor applications, this polypropylene meets UL flame-retardance standards.

Widely used in semiconductor applications, this polypropylene meets UL flame-retardance standards.

Practically nonabsorbent, HDPE won't swell when exposed to moisture. It is denser and more rigid than LDPE, plus it's more chemical resistant.

The combination of high strength and water resistance, along with a variety of color choices, makes this opaque cast acrylic useful for outdoor signs and containers. It's also known as Lucite and Plexiglas® Acrylic.

Polycarbonate maintains good impact resistance across a wide temperature range. It's comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.

Often fabricated into signs, packaging, and light duty housings, polystyrene is easy to thermoform.

An aluminum coating on one side of this film reflects heat, so it’s widely used as an insulator and in packaging applications.

Made with virgin Teflon® PTFE resins, these sheets and bars surpass most plastics when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures.

Known for its naturally slippery surface, PTFE surpasses most plastics when it comes to chemical resistance and performance in extreme temperatures.

This glass-filled PTFE is more rigid than standard PTFE for increased durability in high-stress applications.

Filled with carbon and graphite, this naturally slippery PTFE stands up to wear better than standard PTFE.

Kapton® polyimide film is an excellent electrical insulator.

Because this film dissipates heat, it is often used for printed circuit boards and power supplies.

Not only does PEEK provide superior wear resistance in repetitive processes, it is also resists wear caused by abrasion. PEEK can be used as a lightweight substitute for metal parts in chemical-processing applications.

Choose these sheets over standard Torlon PAI for their excellent electrical insulating properties.

Among the strongest plastic materials we offer, Torlon PAI has a slippery surface that resists wear. Use it to make high-friction compressor parts, bearings, and seals.

When excellent chemical resistance is combined with an ability to hold tight tolerances, the result is PPS—a material that’s widely machined into parts for chemical-processing applications. It is comparable to Techtron and Ryton.

Often used for circuit-breaker housings, manifolds, and semiconductor components, Ultem PEI offers excellent electrical-insulating properties.

At only half the weight of glass, polycarbonate maintains excellent impact resistance across a wide temperature range. It's comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.
