Thermoplastic Extrusion

From Precision Products Group, Inc.
 

 
MATERIALS: * Presently Stocked Materials: Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS), Butyrate, Nylon 12, Polyethylene (LDPE, HDPE), (Polyamide) Nylon, High Impact Styrene (HIPS), Polypropylene (PP) Homopolymer, Polypropylene (PP) Copolymer, Polycarbonate (PC), Polystyrene (PS) * Material Capabilities: Instead of listing all of the materials we are capable of extruding, these are materials we elected not to consider processing: Fluoropolymers, like Teflon, Tefzel and PVDF, and PVC. Basically we are capable of processing any thermoplastic that does not fall into families of the above materials. DIMENSIONAL CAPABILITIES: General guidelines of dimensional capabilities are as follows: Maximum O.D. = 1.750" Minimum I.D. = 0.100" Maximum Wall = 0.750" Minimum Wall = 0.006" Cut Length = 0.250" to 5000'
