Engineering plastics CNC machining.
Engineering plastics for wear, chemical, and biocompatible applications. Stocked grades include PEEK, Delrin (Acetal), and PTFE.
Grades
Grades supported.
| Grade | |
|---|---|
| PEEK | Stocked or sourced for qualified engineering plastics programs. |
| Delrin / Acetal | Stocked or sourced for qualified engineering plastics programs. |
| PTFE | Stocked or sourced for qualified engineering plastics programs. |
Considerations
What engineers should know.
PEEK offers excellent chemical resistance, high temperature performance, and biocompatibility (in medical-grade variants).
Delrin (Acetal) is the workhorse engineering plastic — good stiffness, dimensional stability, and machinability.
PTFE is used for chemical resistance and low friction; soft and challenging for tight tolerances.
Applications
Typical applications.
- Medical components (medical-grade PEEK)
- Electrical insulators
- Wear components and bushings
- Chemical-resistant hardware
Finishing
Surface finishing options.
Most engineering plastics are used as machined; secondary finishing is project-specific.
FAQ
Engineering Plastics — FAQs
The questions engineering and procurement teams ask most often before a first quote.
Can you supply medical-grade PEEK?
Medical-grade PEEK can be sourced from qualified suppliers when specified. Confirm grade and documentation requirements at RFQ.
How tight can you hold tolerances on plastics?
Plastics are more sensitive to temperature and clamping than metals. Tolerance ranges are reviewed at quoting based on material and feature.
