Why Plastics Fabricating & Machining

  • Industrial material support with a practical, maintenance-first mindset

  • Cut-to-size support to speed up fabrication and installs

  • Ability to bridge from raw material → finished parts when needed

  • One source for plastics, gaskets, O-rings, and related components

Choosing the right plastic can improve wear life, reduce corrosion issues, and simplify maintenance—especially in industrial environments. Plastics Fabricating & Machining supplies common industrial plastics in sheet, rod, and tube, and can provide cut-to-size material to help your team move faster.

If you need finished components, we can also support machined plastic parts based on your drawing or sample.

Need something not listed? We can often source additional engineered plastics depending on your application.

UHMW

A go-to for abrasion resistance and sliding wear. Excellent wear and impact resistance Low friction characteristics Common uses: wear strips, liners, guides, sliding surfaces

plastic fabrication services

PTFE / Teflon®

A top choice when chemical resistance and low friction matter.
Excellent chemical compatibility in many services Low coefficient of friction (non-stick, slip surface) Common uses: seals, wear components, chemical service parts, insulation applications

plastic fabrication services

Lexan® (Polycarbonate)

A durable plastic known for impact strength and clarity.
High impact resistance Often used where toughness is required Common uses: guards, covers, panels, protective applications

Nylon

A strong, cost-effective material used widely in mechanical applications. Good wear resistance and machinability Common uses: bushings, guides, spacers, wear pads

Polypropylene

Often selected for chemical resistance and general industrial use. Lightweight and durable Used in many industrial environments (application dependent) Common uses: chemical handling components, general fabrication needs

What We Need to Quote Fast

To quote material quickly, send:

  • Material requested (PTFE, Nylon, UHMW, Polycarbonate, Polypropylene, etc.)

  • Form needed (sheet/rod/tube)

  • Dimensions and thickness/diameter

  • Quantity

  • Deadline/lead time

  • End-use notes (optional, but helpful for recommending alternatives)

Frequently Asked Questions

 Yes — depending on the material and availability, we can supply sheet, rod, and tube and provide cut-to-size piece

 Yes. Tell us what the part is used for (wear, chemical exposure, impact, temperature range), and we’ll recommend options.

Yes — we can quote machined components from drawings, samples, or measurements.

 Yes — many customers order the same materials and sizes for maintenance programs and production needs.

If you’re unsure which plastic is best for your application, share the service conditions and we’ll help narrow it down.
