Plastic Materials
The right material for every application
Elastotecnica supplies a wide range of plastic semi-finished products, continuously updating and studying polymer materials in order to guarantee the best solution for every application.
POM
Polyoxymethylene (POM), commonly known as Zellamid 900®, Delrin® or Ertacetal®, is a crystalline thermoplastic polymer distinguished by its excellent mechanical properties and high dimensional stability, allowing easy machining on machine tools.
Product range in POM:
- POM sheets
- POM rods
- POM hollow rods
PTFE
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), commonly known as Teflon®, is a crystalline thermoplastic polymer with extremely high molecular weight that is chemically inert in almost all environments. It offers excellent dielectric properties, resistance to high temperatures (usable up to 260°C / 500°F) and an extremely low coefficient of friction.
Product range in PTFE:
- Teflon® sheets
- Teflon® rods
- Teflon® hollow rods
PE
Polyethylene, also known as Polizene®, is a material with a very low coefficient of friction, allowing it to be used as an alternative to Teflon® in applications requiring anti-adhesive properties. Thanks to its chemical inertness to many agents and water, it is also widely used in food-related applications.
Product range in Polizene®:
- Polizene® sheets
- Polizene® rods
- Polizene® sleeves
PVC
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a thermoplastic polymer with excellent chemical properties and easy machinability.
Product range in PVC:
- Rigid PVC sheets
- Rigid PVC rods
- Rigid PVC sleeves
- Expanded PVC (used as partition panels and increasingly applied in next-generation AutoStore systems thanks to its printability)
- Flexible PVC, used for manufacturing strip doors for pedestrian and light vehicle access
PMMA
Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), commonly known as Plexiglas®, is a material with very high transparency, resistant to scratches and impacts (compared with polycarbonate) and easy to machine. It can also be supplied in different colors.
Product range in Plexiglas®:
- Plexiglas® sheets (cast or extruded)
- Plexiglas® rods
PC
Polycarbonate (PC) is a transparent material resistant to impacts and heavy loads. It offers good chemical resistance and is easy to machine. Polycarbonate can be supplied in solid or multiwall versions (for construction applications). It is also available in various colors.
Product range in Polycarbonate:
- Polycarbonate sheets
- Polycarbonate rods
PEEK
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is a semicrystalline thermoplastic polymer with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance properties, which remain stable even at high temperatures (continuous operating temperatures up to approximately 250°C / 482°F). PEEK is also valued for its chemical inertness, making it resistant to most commercially available solvents.
Product range in PEEK:
- PEEK sheets
- PEEK rods
- PEEK hollow rods
PVDF
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a high-performance fluorinated thermoplastic polymer characterized by excellent chemical and mechanical resistance.
It is a biologically inert material and is widely used in medical and pharmaceutical systems.
Product range in PVDF:
- PVDF sheets
- PVDF rods
- PVDF sleeves
PET (arnite)
PET (polyethylene terephthalate), also known as Arnite®, is a semicrystalline polymer that offers excellent machinability on machine tools thanks to its dimensional stability.
Product range in Arnite:
- Arnite sheets
- Arnite rods
- Arnite sleeves
PA
Polyamide (PA), commonly known as Nylon®, is a polymer characterized by excellent wear resistance.
Product range in Nylon®:
- Nylon® sheets
- Nylon® rods
- Nylon® sleeves
