There are many plastics that can be machined to create bushings and parts resistant to wear and chemicals.

Polypropylene

From fiber to film, from injection molding to thermoformed sheet polypropylene is as versatile as it is varied.

Teflon Mechanical Grade (PTFE)

Teflon's high coefficient of expansion and stress creep properties can make it difficult to achieve tight machining tolerances.

More Info

Nylon 6-6 Natural

Extra care must be taken in the colder months when plastic materials tend to lose some of their toughness and have less resistance to machining stresses.

More Info

Polystyrene

The high-impact Polystyrenes have a lower tendency to splinter and can be machined much more easily.

Different Grades of Polyethylene

Polyethylene material can be cut with a table saw, radial arm saw, CNC router, band saw, or panel saw.

More Info

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)

Textured on one side and has a smooth surface on the other. ABS can be formed on wood, epoxy, ceramic, and aluminum molds.

Different grades of PVC

Sawing, milling, drilling, turning, cutting, punching, and perforating.

More Info

Polycarbonate

Fine toothed panel blades can be used for trouble free cutting of Polycarbonate sheets.
