Plastic Pellets

Use them with injection molders, 3D printers, and other molding equipment.

Wear Resistant—With a low coefficient of friction, these pellets won't wear away from abrasion that’s often caused by contact with moving parts. Melt and mold them into desired shapes. They handle high temperatures without losing their mechanical properties.

Nylon—Nylon pellets have good wear resistance, as well as chemical resistance against fuels and hydrocarbons. They will expand and contract when exposed to moisture and temperature changes.
