HDPE (High Density Polyethylene)

Acetal (POM-C) is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic with good dimensional stability and frictional properties. It contains high mechanical strength, toughness and provides an ease of machining not present in other plastics. Acetal is primarily for customers in which precision componentry with small tolerances are of importance. In contrast to Nylon, Acetal provides very low moisture absorption, making it a necessity for applications within a submerged or wet environment. This is due to its ability for mechanical properties to be maintained through wet or harsh environments. Chemically resistant, Acetal is also a great choice for corrosive conditions. With our workshop in Brisbane (QLD), B Plastic is able to machine components efficiently and with minimal tolerances.

Nylon PA is produced through two methods, cast and extrusion. Cast nylon demonstrates higher molecular weight, higher crystallization then extruded Nylon. Typically, Nylon is known for high mechanical strength, good wear resistance, sliding function and great machinability. In contrast to polyethylene products, Nylon absorbs moisture and is prone to expansion, as a result, it is not recommended for wet environments. Each grade of Nylon is manufactured to have different characteristics such as self lubrication, wax filled, UV – resistance and more.

Nylon Grades Available Include: Natural, Moly, Blue, Green, T-Glide, Aquanyl & Impact Resistant.

The properties of PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) derive from its chemical structure, consisting of a bond of carbon and fluorine. PTFE is also known as an almost universal chemical resistance. The low co-efficient of friction as well as minimal abrasion wear create an excellent material for sliding applications. Additionally, PTFE will operate consistently within harsh UV and extreme heat environments, including temperatures up to 260°C. PTFE also has excellent electrical properties, allowing use within high voltage applications. PTFE is a physiologically inert material. Physiologically Inert materials are too dense to absorb bacteria or liquid, preventing it from expanding or contracting. As a result, PTFE is excellent for applications within the food or beverage industry.
