There is an extensive range of thermoplastic and themoset materials available for making machined components. Many of these can also be used to make injection moulded parts - we are often asked to supply machined prototypes prior to high volume scale up to injection moulding.

We would be pleased to advise on the use of materials for your application however, we can not design the finished component for you - this is ultimately the responsibility of the company who issues the drawing.

Technical data for each material is available from the manufacturer of the semi-finished stock shape that we use to make the machined component. We provide a Property Comparitor based on this data that is intended as a bench-mark guide to material selection. We do not issue our own technical specifications on materials but can provide you with copies of data from our own suppliers.
