Polycarbonate - Machine Grade Plate - Sheet
Polycarbonate - Machine Grade Plate (thick sheet for engineering grade parts)
Machine-grade polycarbonate is an amorphous thermoplastic material with high-impact strength, high modulus of elasticity, and good dimensional stability. These properties, in addition to good electrical characteristics, make machine grade polycarbonate stock shapes an excellent choice for electrical/electronic applications. Its strength, impact resistance and optical properties also make it an ideal material for certain structural applications that require visual translucency.

![PTFE - Carbon-Filled]( "PTFE - Carbon-Filled")
PTFE - Carbon-Filled
Carbon-Filled PTFE was developed for its mechanical properties. The two basic materials used in these compounds, by themselves, are very questionable.
PTFE has good frictional properties including low wear rates and good elasticity. The carbon filler is brittle and has low wear properties. Both fail at high loads and increased
velocities. When both elements are formulated and properly blended together, they become an
extremely good material for use as seals and rings in the reciprocating compressor industry.
The properties increase several hundred times. Wear resistance is changed dramatically
compared to Virgin PTFE. The type and percentage of carbon is critical to material
performance. Carbon filled has a higher percentage of filler than any other PTFE blend.
Therefore the two materials must be similiar in size to prevent voids in the molded billet. For
optimum wear properties, the filler percentage is also important. Lower percentages are
easier to machine but do not perform as well in service. AVA56 PTFE material, is designed
for optimum wear properties in all suitable applications.
The molding cycle is also important to provide proper pysical properties. At higher molding
pressures the material has higher density and more filler is required. Not all carbon filled
PTFE is of the same quality.

![PTFE Sheet & Rod (Virgin Grade)]( "PTFE Sheet & Rod (Virgin Grade)")
PTFE Sheet & Rod (Virgin Grade)
PTFE is a fluoropolymer that exhibits astonishing chemical resistance and ultra high-purity. Self-lubricating and with a low friction coefficient, PTFE sheets and rods are ideally suited for the manufacture of high-temperature seals, insulators and bearings used in semiconductor, aerospace & chemical processing industries. PTFE's low coefficient of friction makes it suitable for applications where sliding action of parts is needed: such as plain bearings, gears, and slide plates. In these applications, it performs significantly better than nylon and acetal; and is comparable to UHMW. PTFE however can be used over a far wider temperature range than these materials; -100°F to +400°F (-73°C to 204°C) and offers superior electrical insulation properties. Although its' mechanical properties are low compared to other engineering plastics, those properties can be enhanced through the use of additives such as Carbon, Graphite, Bronze, and Glass Fiber. The most commonly known brand name of PTFE-based formulas is Teflon® by Chemours

PVC Duct Pipe
Harvel PVC Duct pipe is extruded from Harvel's own custom blend of dark-gray-colored Type I, Grade I, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) compound with a Cell Classification of 12454B per ASTM D1784 (PVC 1120). Harvel PVC Duct can safely carry a maximum service temperature of 140°F. Harvel PVC Duct is chemically resistant to most acids, bases, salts, aliphatic solutions, oxidants, and halogens. Unlike metallics, vapor phase or liquid-vapor phase corrosion is generally less aggressive with thermoplastics than the liquid phase corrosion. When in question, testing must be conducted under actual use conditions to verify compatibility. Detailed chemical resistance data is available and should be referenced for proper material selection.
