Injection Molding Materials

Get the Right Material for Your Specific Application

Ensinger Precision Components works with a range of injection molding materials to find the perfect match between your application and the engineering or high-performance thermoplastics available.

Combined with our extensive manufacturing capabilities, superior engineering processes, and the global reach and capabilities of Ensinger, we’re confident in our abilities as a premier North American injection molding production and services provider.

Three Categories of Injection Molding Materials

Depending on your specific industry, your material requirements may vary. At Ensinger Precision Components, your injection molding materials selection will fall under one of three types — High Performance, Engineering, or General Industrial.

Ensinger Precision Components’ high-performance thermoplastics are grouped separately from the engineering thermoplastics because they have extraordinary properties such as high strength, temperature resistance, impact toughness, dimensional stability, chemical resistance, fatigue resistance, and low flammability. Some typical materials include:

High Performance (>300°F)

Engineering (185°F–300°F)

Acetal – TECAFORM® and Delrin®
Nylon – TECAMID®
Polyesters – TECAPET®
Polycarbonate (PC) – TECANAT®
Polyurethane – HYDEX®
Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) – TECAFLON

General Industrial (<185°F)

Polypropylene – TECAFINE® PP
Polyethylene – TECAFINE® PE
Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene – TECARAN ™
Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) – TECADUR® TPE
