Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) is the abrasion champion of engineering plastics — outwearing steel in sliding wear, refusing to absorb water, and sliding with less friction than almost any other material. Its limits are temperature and stiffness. NAGOMER supplies UHMW-PE sheet and rod for conveyor liners, chain guides, and impact pads across food, mining, and logistics operations.
Polysulfone (PSU/PPSU) is the transparent engineering plastic of choice where repeated steam sterilisation is routine. Unlike polycarbonate, which cracks under aggressive sterilisation cycles, sulfone polymers survive thousands of autoclave passes without crazing or losing strength. NAGOMER supplies PSU and PPSU sheets and rods for medical trays, surgical instrument handles, and food-processing components.
Nylon remains the workhorse of mechanical plastics: tough, wear resistant, and far cheaper than PEEK, which is why cast polyamide sheet and rod are found in gears, slides, and rollers across every industry. The catch is moisture — PA6, PA66, and PA12 behave very differently when humidity changes. NAGOMER supplies cast nylon and PA12 stock shapes and machines finished components to drawing.
Robots and automation systems reward materials that cut weight, damp vibration, run without lubrication, and control static electricity. From ESD-safe end-effectors in electronics assembly to carbon-filled PEEK arms on high-speed pick-and-place machines, engineering plastics are enabling faster, cleaner, and quieter automation. NAGOMER supplies and machines the full palette — POM, PA66, PEEK, UHMW-PE, and ESD grades.
Sunlight is silent but relentless: ultraviolet radiation breaks polymer chains, turning glossy surfaces chalky and tough parts brittle within seasons. Choosing the right plastic — or protecting it correctly — is the difference between a ten-year service life and a warranty claim. NAGOMER supplies UV-resistant materials and stabilised grades for outdoor enclosures, architectural components, and solar equipment.
Food and beverage equipment places a unique combination of demands on materials: regulatory compliance, resistance to cleaning chemicals and steam, low moisture uptake, and consistent wear performance in wet, high-cycle environments. NAGOMER supplies food-contact engineering plastics — including natural PEEK, POM-C, UHMW-PE, and PTFE — used in conveyors, filling machines, and packaging lines worldwide.
Polyimide (PI) is one of the highest-temperature engineering plastics in common industrial use, retaining mechanical integrity at continuous temperatures up to 250°C and excelling in radiation, vacuum, and wear-critical environments. NAGOMER machines PI sheets, rods, and finished components for semiconductor test equipment, aerospace, and high-automation industries. This guide explains what makes PI unique, how it compares with PEEK, and where its premium cost is justified.
