Flexible Plastic

PVC | Poly Vinyl Chloride

  • Used for a wide variety of applications due to its strength, chemical resistance, insulation properties, and economical costs. 
  • Often used for splines, wrap around glazings, bumpers, and many other applications. 
  • We offer a wide variety of durometers to provide the hardness you are looking for.  Please contact us for details

TPE | Thermoplastic Elastomers

  • A great option for many flexible applications including, bulb seals, glazings, flap seals, and more! 
  • Has a very low compression set, and generally holds shape over a longer period of time than FPVC. 
  • Ideal for applications where a lot of moving parts are involved. 
  • Our TPE is a SEBS base with PP, and EPDM added. 
  • Our compound mimics the physical properties of a TPV, but with an SEBS base. 
    • This provides the advantages of rubber and plastic qualities in a single material.
  • We offer a wide variety of durometers to provide the ideal hardness you are looking for. Please contact us for details.
