Absylux ABS is a low cost engineering plastic that is easy to machine and fabricate. Absylux
is an ideal material for structural applications when impact resistance, strength, and stiffness
are required. It is widely used for machining pre-production prototypes since it has excellent
dimensional stability and is easy to paint and glue. Natural (beige) and black Absylux are
FDA compliant for use in food processing applications. *In addition to our standard capabilities, Westlake also has the
ability to process custom resins in various sizes and colors
with some exceptions.
Dielux PTFE filled acetal copolymer is an outstanding bearing and wear material for use in both wet
and dry environments. Dielux is frequently used in place of traditional metal and plastic bearing
materials when low friction, excellent wear properties, and good dimensional stability are required.
The PTFE filler allows Dielux to be used without additional lubricants in applications where grease
and oil are undesirable. The white grade of Dielux is FDA compliant for use in food processing
machinery. *In addition to our standard capabilities, Westlake also
has the ability to process custom resins in various sizes
and colors with some exceptions.
Norylux modified PPO is a strong engineering plastic with outstanding mechanical, thermal, and
electrical properties. Low moisture absorption and low thermal expansion make Norylux one of the
most dimensionally stable thermoplastics available. Norylux is widely used for electrical housings
and structural components since it has excellent insulating properties, flame resistance, and
dimensional stability over a wide range of service temperatures. Norylux is often selected for fluid
handling applications since it has low moisture absorption and excellent strength and stiffness.
Norylux is easy to fabricate, paint, and glue. *In addition to our standard capabilities, Westlake also
has the ability to process custom resins in various sizes
and colors with some exceptions.
Pomalux is a high-performance acetal copolymer that has excellent mechanical, electrical, and wear
properties. It is engineered to provide outstanding dimensional stability, even when machining parts
with complex geometries. Pomalux is an excellent choice for many bearing and wear applications
since it has low coefficient of friction and wears well in both wet and dry environments. It is widely
used for assembly jigs and fixtures because of its inherent dimensional stability and excellent wear
properties. Pomalux is often specified for electrical applications when low moisture absorption and
high dielectric strength are required. Both natural (white) and black Pomalux are FDA compliant for
use in food processing machinery. Westlake Plastics Company manufactures all Acetal extruded &
compression molded sheets, plates and rods in accordance to ASTM D6100. This specification covers
requirement and test methods for the material, dimensions, workmanship and the properties of extruded
and compression molded sheets, plates and rods. *In addition to our standard capabilities, Westlake
also has the ability to process custom resins in
various sizes and colors with some exceptions.
Zelux polycarbonate is an engineering plastic with excellent dimensional stability and good
strength and stiffness over a wide range of service temperatures. Zelux is often used for structural
applications when clarity and impact strength are essential including lenses, manifolds, site
glasses, and machine guards. Zelux is used for a wide variety of electrical applications since it
has low moisture absorption, good insulating properties, and an excellent flammability rating.
Zelux is easy to fabricate, paint, and glue. *In addition to our standard capabilities, Westlake also
has the ability to process custom resins in various sizes
and colors with some exceptions.
