Polyethylene

A Widely Produced Thermoplastic Polymer

North Coast Seal uses a variety of rigid and flexible plastic materials to produce custom molded plastic parts. Polyethylene, one of the world’s most common plastic materials, is a cost-effective choice that also offers significant resistance and longevity. All plastics are classified by the way the material responds to heat. Categorized as a thermoplastic, polyethylene can be heated to its melting point and then cooled and reheated again. This means it is a strong candidate for injection molding and can be a great choice for producing plastic gaskets and seals.
