Plastic Machining: Selecting The Right Plastic Material- Heat Resistance

When selecting the proper material for any specific plastic application, the choice should be made given the material’s properties. One such property when purchasing custom plastic parts is heat resistant.

Not all plastic materials are suitable for every application. Properties such as temperature, chemical resistance, and impact strength must be evaluated ultimately leading to the selecting of the perfect material for a the specific plastic machined part’s application.

Temperature is one of the main factors that must be considered in the material selection process for your plastic machining requirements.

If a plastic machined component will be utilized in a high temperature environment, the following materials should be considered as possible solutions for your application:

Materials are compared to one another among a wide range of design considerations, leading to a very efficient selection process.

Plastic materials vary vastly and selecting the right one for your application is crucial for a plastic machined parts’ success.
