The miracles of science™

Select Industry


This innovative thermoplastic material lets you improve functionality in ways you never thought possible. In fact, just like the S line, TP parts have superior wear, chemical and temperature resistance; you can even use them to replace metal and ceramic parts. And also like the S line, various TP products have been created to fit a variety of design specs.

 
TP-1012BK

Gears that are quiet, flexible and strong. Bushings that can be UL-V0 rated for flame resistance. TP-1012BK gives you high-modulus parts with superior wear resistance in dry environments.  Plus, they’re an excellent value.
