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.

Because PVC resists many acids and alkalies, it’s widely used for tanks and in chemical-processing applications. Also known as PVC Type 1.

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.
