Composites combine two or more distinct components to create a material with enhanced mechanical and physical properties. In industrial manufacturing, composites provide advantages like high strength-to-weight ratios and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for many applications. As the demand for higher performance in manufacturing increases, the ability to customize composites to meet specific requirements becomes essential.
At Polycraft Products, we address your manufacturing needs with a comprehensive range of composite materials. Our flexible manufacturing processes adapt to diverse project requirements, whether you seek customized designs or high-volume production runs with tight tolerances. We prioritize quality and innovation, ensuring our composite solutions meet and exceed industry standards while providing reliable products tailored to your specifications.
Types of Materials We Work With at Polycraft Products, Inc.
Industrial manufacturers choose composites for their exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, which help produce lighter-weight products without sacrificing performance. These materials provide significant advantages in aerospace and defense, where durability and reliability play critical roles. For instance, in the automotive industry, composites enhance fuel efficiency by reducing vehicle weight.
We work with materials like these, which are either composites themselves or used in applications with composites:
- Fiber-reinforced materials: Fiber-reinforced composites enhance durability with high tensile strength, stiffness and corrosion resistance. Their low density can withstand significant loads while reducing overall weight and improving product efficiency. Manufacturers can also customize fiber types and orientations, allowing them to optimize materials for specific needs and drive innovation across industries.
- Film adhesives: Film adhesives are effective because they provide strong bonding of composites with minimal thickness, which helps save weight and space in industries like aerospace and automotive. They offer excellent resistance to heat, moisture and chemicals while delivering long-lasting performance in demanding environments. Additionally, their ability to bond to dissimilar materials allows manufacturers to create innovative designs and improve product versatility.
- Teflon: Teflon, also called polytetrafluoroethylene (PFTE), can be used as a matrix in composites — a material that binds things together. It’s valuable due to its nonstick properties, which reduce friction and prevent material buildup in machining processes and food production. It also withstands high temperatures and harsh chemicals, making it ideal for applications in corrosive environments and high-performance industries. Teflon’s electrical insulation properties can enhance safety and reliability in electronics and electrical applications, promoting innovation across various sectors.
