Machinable Plastics

Yes, I said machinable plastics.

Plastics have been around a long time, since its invention it has become one of the most widely used products on the planet.

One type is Fluorosint, a plastic with some interesting properties. Some of the properties are high maximum allowable service temperature in air (260°C continuously), excellent chemical and hydrolysis resistance. Other properties are outstanding UV- and weather resistance, physiologically inert (suitable for food contact, except FLUOROSINT 500, inherent low flammability and good electrical insulating properties.

Quadrant Plastics is a company that works with machinable plastics. I have been checking them out for some design work. They carry stock designs and can do custom work for any need or requirement.

When you are going to start manufacturing parts for a product, it is best to stay with a company that is an expert in the material and know how to get it right the first time. There is nothing like wasting money while you wait for a manufacturer to learn how to make a part, so don’t be the one waiting.
