PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
An Ideal Choice for Custom Molded Plastic Parts
Polyvinyl chloride, more commonly known as PVC, is a synthetic plastic polymer used in applications ranging from construction pipes and hospital supplies to automotive parts. Because of its affordability and versatility, PVC is widely used in both its flexible and rigid forms. We offer PVC as a material option for diaphragm seals, pipe gaskets, O-rings, plastic extrusions, and more. If you need high-quality custom molded plastic parts, reach out to the team at North Coast Seal to learn more about choosing PVC for your application.
The Benefits of PVC
PVC is a thermoplastic, meaning it is a substance that becomes moldable at a certain temperature and solidifies as it cools. This process can be repeated indefinitely as PVC maintains the same chemical composition whether it is in a solid or a liquid form. Because of its affordability, PVC is a popular material choice across many industries. PVC is lightweight, long-lasting, and resistant to corrosion. Other benefits of PVC include:
- UV resistance
- Shock absorption
- Sound deadening capabilities
- Low cost
- Electric insulation
- Fire resistance
