UHMWPE Extrusion Rods
This engineering plastic can be machined into virtually anything, from small (low load)gears and bearings to huge sprockets-shapes that until recently were only possible with metals. It not only outperforms metal in abrasion applications, it’s also easier to machine and therefore cheaper. T...Read More -
Why Choose PTFE Material for Machine Parts?
PTFE parts are easy to machine, affordable and long lasting. Parts made of this unique plastic are often used in mechanisms that rotate or slide due to PTFE’s low coefficient of friction and wear resistance…… PTFE stands for Poly Tetra Fluoro Ethylene, it is a fluorocarbo...Read More -
The Key Principles of Extrusion Part 2
The following are important principles to keep in mind regarding extrusion. They should help save money, yield higher quality products, and use equipment more efficiently. 4. The feed acts as the coolant.Extrusion is a transfer of energy from the motor—and sometimes the heaters—to the cool plasti...Read More -
PEEK Insulated Wire
PEEK insulated wire is designed specifically for use in challenging environments, typical applications include magnet or winding wire for motors and electrical insulation. For some applications, little or no varnish is required and material properties are maintained in long, continuous lengths wi...Read More -
Difference Between Nylon and PTFE
Nylon and PTFE are manmade synthetic polymers that are most widely used in the polymer industry. Nylon is a polyamide and polymer is a fluoro polymer. Both of them possess a high molecular weight and they are thermoplastics. PTFE is a water phobic, chemically less reactive material with...Read More -
