About Composites

Oil-Filled Easy-to-Machine Wear-Resistant
Cast Nylon Sheets and Bars

This nylon stays lubricated over time because it’s filled with oil. Use it to fabricate parts for hard-to-reach places where adding lubricants would be difficult.

Oil-Filled Easy-to-Machine
Wear-Resistant Cast Nylon Tubes

This nylon stays lubricated over time because it’s filled with oil. Use it to fabricate parts for hard-to-reach places where adding lubricants would be difficult.

Oil-Filled Easy-to-Machine
Wear-Resistant Cast Nylon Rods

This nylon stays lubricated over time because it’s filled with oil. Use it to fabricate parts for hard-to-reach places where adding lubricants would be difficult.

Marine-Grade Moisture-Resistant
Polyethylene (HDPE) Sheets and Bars

Also known as starboard, these sheets and bars won’t degrade when exposed to salt water, humidity, and UV light.

Stiff PVC Foam Cores

Add stiffness to composite sandwiches without adding a lot of weight.

Choose-a-Color Acrylic

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.

Lightweight UV-Resistant PET Foam Cores

When exposed to UV rays, these cores won’t become brittle or break down. Use them to add stiffness to composite sandwiches that may be used outdoors without adding a lot of weight.

High-Strength Wear-Resistant Torlon PAI Balls

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.

Garolite

Multipurpose Flame-Retardant
Garolite G-10/FR4 Sheets and Bars

A good all-around choice, Garolite G-10/FR4 is strong, machinable, and electrically insulating. It meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance.

Multipurpose Flame-Retardant Garolite G-10/FR4 Rods

A good all-around choice, Garolite G-10/FR4 is strong, machinable, and electrically insulating. It meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance.

Multipurpose Flame-Retardant
Garolite G-10/FR4 Rectangular Tubes

These rectangular tubes are flame retardant, machinable, and electrically insulating.

Multipurpose Flame-Retardant Garolite G-10/FR4 Discs

A good all-around choice, Garolite G-10/FR4 is strong, machinable, and electrically insulating. It meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance.

High-Temperature Garolite G-11 Sheets and Bars

Offering higher strength and better heat resistance than Garolite G-10/FR4, Garolite G-11 is suitable for continuous use in elevated temperatures.

High-Temperature Garolite G-11 Rods

Offering higher strength and better heat resistance than Garolite G-10/FR4, Garolite G-11 is suitable for continuous use in elevated temperatures.

Halogen-Free Garolite G-10 Rods

Use Garolite G-10 in place of Garolite G-10/FR4 for applications that are sensitive to halogen, such as in nuclear plants. It's strong, machinable, and electrically insulating.

Ultra-Low-Temperature Garolite G-10 CR Sheets

Rated for temperatures down to -320° F, this Garolite G-10 CR performs better in cryogenic applications than other glass epoxies.

Ultra-Low-Temperature Garolite G-10 CR Tubes

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