Engineering Plastics 65ºC to 120ºC

Semi-finished acetal, nylon, polycarbonate, PET, UHMW-PE products and beyond.

Our engineering materials are good candidates to replace traditional materials ranging from bronze to rubber, helping to reduce weight and improve performance, reliability, and safety. They exhibit elevated properties for a broad range of applications and industries, including high mechanical strength, good machinability, electrical and chemical resistance, and consistence performance over a broad temperature range.

Many of these products are also physiologically inert, making them strong candidates for food contact applications, per FDA approval.

Improve your application with engineering plastics and our end-to-end support. This portfolio is available in plastic stock shapes including tubes, rods, and sheets, along with custom machining.
Ertalyte® Family of Products
Ertalyte® is an unreinforced, semi-crystalline thermoplastic polyester based on polyethylene terephthalate (PET-P). This family of products has exceptional dimensional stability coupled with excellent wear resistance, a low coefficient of friction, high strength, and resistance to moderately acidic solutions.

Flextron™ Family of Products
Flextron™ Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) shapes excel in applications where superior performance over conventional elastomers is required. These TPE materials exhibit excellent chemical resistance properties, while maintaining consistent mechanical capabilities over a broad temperature range.
TIVAR® Family of Products
TIVAR®­ UHMW-PE sets the standard for engineered polymers with a unique combination of wear and corrosion resistance, low friction surface and impact strength. The material is resistant to chemical corrosion and moisture absorption, and retains key physical properties to -200°C.

An excellent general-purpose material, TIVAR®­ is a cost-effective solution for food handling problems. Its natural formulation, but also many of its color variations, meet FDA guidelines for food processing and handling. From food processing to packaging, bulk material handling to pharmaceutical processing TIVAR® can improve your business performance. If your process machinery has problems with noise, premature wear, stretched chains, unscheduled downtime or expensive replacements, TIVAR® solves those problems and your machinery runs longer and smoother.
Nylatron® (Ertalon® Family of Products)
Ertalon® and Nylatron® are a range of high-performance nylon materials with high toughness, a low coefficient of friction, and excellent wear resistance. These properties make them the industry standard for use in bearing and wear applications, and ideal replacements for materials ranging from bronze to rubber.
Altron™ Family of Products
Altron™ is a range of polycarbonate, polyphenylene oxide, and polyvinyl chloride shapes offering excellent mechanical, electrical, and chemical resistance properties as well as mid-range temperature resistance.
Acetron® (Ertacetal® Family of Products)
Ertacetal® / Acetron® are homopolymer and copolymer acetal materials for applications requiring improved dimensional stability but less wear resistance than nylons. Special formulations include an enhanced bearing grade material, a metal- and x-ray-detectable acetal, food-contact compliant acetals, and a range of colors.
