6 High-Performance Materials for Machining Plastics

Plastics have traditionally been considered a lighter, less durable material to be used in low performance settings. Although they were previously outmatched in tensile strength and durability by metal alloys, numerous plastics have since been developed that outpace metal in strength, durability, and wear resistance. As material technology evolves, higher quality plastics are becoming more common in high-performance and specialty applications, from industrial components to automotive and aerospace parts.

At Advanced Industrial, we are committed to providing high-performance plastic components for critical applications and industries. As a fabricator and distributor, we specialize in plastics as a replacement for metal components. Although it can be tempting to rely on traditional metals, these metals have been replaced by high-performance plastics in many applications.
