Delrin® acetal resin, also known as acetal homopolymer, is stronger and stiffer than acetal copolymer.

Also known as nylon 6/6, this general purpose material is often used for bearings, gears, valve seats, and other high-wear parts.

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

Offering greater impact resistance than standard PVC Type 1 with similar chemical resistance, this PVC Type 2 is widely used for parts that are subject to shock.

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

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

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

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.

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.

With a clear coating that provides protection from abrasion, UV light, and harsh cleaners, this polycarbonate is often used to create transit shelters and equipment shields.

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

Because PVC resists acids and alkalies, it is often used in tanks and chemical-processing applications where visibility is essential.

Stronger than Garolite CE with better electrical-insulating properties, Garolite XX is often fabricated into low-cost electrical components.

Garolite CE is often fabricated into parts where high strength is not required.

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

Garolite G-7 sheets have high heat tolerance—they withstand temperatures up to 425° F. While not as strong as Garolite G-9 sheets, they offer better arc resistance in dry environments.

Resisting heavy impacts and temperatures up to 500° F, these Garolite sheets are used in machinery such as turbine bearings and downpipe gaskets.

Offering excellent arc and track resistance, this GPO3 fiberglass is often used for electrical applications in humid environments.

Hard fiber is the easiest composite to machine, making it good for creating custom parts. Also known as vulcanized fiber.

The textured surface of these thick shims keeps them from sliding apart when stacked. Use them to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.
