CPVC is just as chemical resistant as standard PVC Type 1 and can handle hotter temperatures up to 200° F.

The addition of MDS gives these tubes exceptional wear resistance along with a self-lubricating surface. They're made of cast nylon 6, making them easier to machine and better electrical insulators than other MDS-filled nylon tubes.

A good choice for making sprockets and pulleys, these cast nylon 6 tubes withstand higher temperatures and are easier to machine than standard nylon 6/6 tubes.

In addition to a low-friction surface that prevents sticking and binding, this tough material is impact and wear resistant to handle the scuffs, scrapes, and strikes that other plastics can’t.

The addition of PTFE provides a more slippery, wear-resistant surface than standard Delrin® acetal resin. It’s commonly fabricated into pump components, gears, and bearings.

Because ABS maintains its toughness even after thermoforming, it’s often made into storage cases, tote trays, equipment housings, and protective gear.

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

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.

This extruded acrylic offers similar performance as cast acrylic at a lower cost.

PETG can be formed into complex shapes without sacrificing durability.

Mount these lightweight tubes to flat surfaces in place of aluminum to create structural frames, machinery components, and robotics.

Often used for structural framing, machinery components, and robotics, these carbon fiber tubes are as stiff as steel yet a fraction of the weight.

Easily turn these rectangular tubes into parts for transformers and switchgears using high-speed tooling.

Using nothing more than standard high-speed steel tooling, Garolite LE can be machined into intricate parts.

Rated for temperatures down to -450° F, this Garolite G-10 CR performs better in cryogenic applications than other glass epoxies.

A flame-retardant version of Garolite G-11, these tubes are commonly used to make bushings, standoffs, and spacers for areas with high temperatures. All are stronger and resist heat better than Garolite G-10/FR4.

Used in turbine bearings, downpipe gaskets, and other machinery, these Garolite tubes withstand heavy impacts and temperatures as high as 500° F.

An alternative to wood in structural applications, FRP fiberglass is strong and lightweight.

Route and insulate wire using these square fiberglass tubes, which fit better along edges and around corners than round tubes.
