Engineering Plastics

Machinable engineering plastics are used in virtually every industry and are often used to replace metal materials. In comparison to metal parts, parts machined from thermoplastics generally weigh less and can significantly reduce noise. When the right engineered plastic is matched to the right application, the part will last longer, wear better, and provide overall better performance that can reduce downtime for maintenance, lubrication, and part replacement.

At Online Plastics® you will find everything from common to unique thermoplastic materials like DuPont™ Vespel® that feature distinctive characteristics that make them ideal for applications where extreme temperature, pressure, or velocity make finding a suitable material a challenge.
