BENEFITS OF PLASTIC / COMPOSITES

- Metal to Plastic Conversion
- Consolidation of parts
- Lighter part weight
- Lower cost than metal
- Multiple resin types-finishes, colors, and additives such as
UV stabilizers to enhance looks & life of part. - Consistency in parts-tight tolerances to multi part
configurations - resistance to chemical & weather usage
- high strength, durability and impact resistance
- Better vibration damping properties than metals
- Physical properties of composites exceed those of non-
engineered thermoplastics, aluminum, cast iron and steel
on a strength to weight basis
