Stronger than PTFE, PVDF offers good chemical resistance. Comparable to Kynar and Solef, it’s widely used for pump parts, tank liners, and seals.

Just as chemical resistant as PTFE, yet FEP offers greater impact strength. Use it to make valve components and gaskets.

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.

Cast acrylic is easier to machine than extruded acrylic. It's comparable to Lucite and Plexiglas® Acrylic.

A static-dissipative coating on this cast acrylic prevents electrostatic discharge from damaging sensitive electronic equipment.

Modified for increased impact strength over other types of acrylic, this acrylic is often used for skylights and outdoor signs.

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

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 polycarbonate has a static-dissipative coating that prevents electrostatic discharge from damaging sensitive electronic equipment.

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

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

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

These Garolite CE sheets and bars are often fabricated into parts where high strength is not required.

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.

Create a barrier against fire and smoke. These sheets and strips meet FAR 25.856 and UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance.

Even after extended compression, these sheets and strips will bounce back to shape.

A thin layer of aluminized fiberglass on this silicone foam reflects heat to protect sensitive equipment.

Even after extended compression, these high-performance polyurethane foam sheets and strips bounce back to shape faster than any other foam we offer. Also known as Poron urethane, they also stand up to wear caused by rubbing and scraping.

Good for tough vacuum-sealing and low closure-force applications, these polyurethane foam sheets and strips have open/closed cells to keep water, air, and gases from being absorbed when they are compressed at least 25%. Even after extended compression, all bounce back to shape faster than other foams we offer.

EPDM is blended with neoprene and SBR to create a general-purpose foam that offers good resistance to water and wear.

Made of a blend of neoprene and EDPM, these foam sheets and strips resist water, sunlight, and oxidation.

This foam meets UL fire extinguishing specifications. It's made from a blend of Buna-N, neoprene, and vinyl to offer offer good resistance to oil.

Use for wrap-around insulation.

These mica sheets resist temperatures up to 930° F. Also called muscovite mica.

These durable sheets resist compression and are often used in oven and power-generating applications.

Made of high-strength calcium silicate, these durable sheets withstand high temperatures and are often used in power-generating applications.

Typically used in ovens and furnaces, these are the most efficient of our rigid high-temperature insulation sheets. Please note that they require special care when installing since the crumbly material is difficult to work with and will crack easily. Sheets lose strength over time and are intended to be installed behind another facing or insulation material.

Often used in high-humidity applications for its low moisture absorption, this flexible paper insulation is made of inorganic materials. It’s typically used in appliances and electrical devices.
