Material Support
Our mission to find the right material for your application is simple… we listen.
And then, we use our vast knowledge of the evolution of polymer materials over the years to help start your project, product introduction, prototype or supply run.
Aluminum, Brass, Bronze, Steels, and other softer metal materials is our niche with metals. We purposefully take on only those types of metals due to our extensive internal catalog of tooling and setup surrounding plastics which can be more or less adjacent to soft metals.
“The Plastics Machining Experts” give you peace of mind while working with engineering and aerospace grade polymer materials. It’s our bread and butter.
