Unlocking Performance with Engineered Plastic Components

Created at : Jul 28, 2025

In the world of modern manufacturing, performance, precision, and durability are everything. As industries evolve, so do the materials that power their progress. At H & R Screw Machine, we’re at the forefront of this evolution—specializing in engineered plastic components that are transforming the way critical systems perform across industries.

Why Engineered Plastics?

Gone are the days when metal was the only answer for high-performance applications. Today’s engineering plastics offer a unique combination of strength, heat resistance, chemical durability, and design flexibility—qualities that make them ideal for complex, demanding environments. From aerospace to automotive, from medical devices to industrial automation, engineered plastic parts are solving problems metal never could.

At H & R Screw Machine, we don't just machine parts—we help build better systems. Our components are lighter, more corrosion-resistant, and often more cost-effective than their metal counterparts, while still meeting stringent mechanical and environmental requirements.

Materials That Make a Difference

We work with a broad spectrum of engineering-grade thermoplastics, including:

  • Nylon (PA) – Known for wear resistance and mechanical strength, perfect for gears and bushings.

  • Polycarbonate (PC) – Impact-resistant and dimensionally stable; ideal for housings and safety-related parts.

  • POM (Acetal/Delrin) – Offers low friction and high precision for moving parts like bearings and rollers.

  • PEEK – The gold standard in chemical and temperature resistance, used in aerospace and medical-grade components.

  • ABS, PBT, PET, and more – Each tailored to meet specific performance needs in electrical, structural, or aesthetic applications.

Our deep understanding of these materials allows us to engineer components that not only fit but excel in their roles—reducing weight, cutting costs, and increasing product longevity.
