PVC in Injection Molding
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a durable, cost-effective thermoplastic with chemical resistance, mechanical strength, flame-retardant characteristics, and electrical insulation properties. RapidDirect offers PVC Grey for CNC machining and injection molding, for applications including piping, electrical insulation, medical devices, and custom industrial parts.
- Chemical resistance: PVC resists many chemicals and suits components used in demanding environments.
- Electrical insulation: PVC’s insulating properties support electrical and electronic components.
- Durability: Its mechanical strength and environmental durability suit long-lasting parts.
- Cost effectiveness: PVC offers a practical option for prototypes and production parts.
Selection note: PVC is available in rigid and flexible formulations. RapidDirect’s listed PVC Grey is suited to durable custom parts; choose the process according to geometry, quantity, and design requirements.
