Plastic profiles

Plastic profiles can used for many different types of tasks, as plastic offers high wear resistance, low weight, does not rust, and can extend maintanence intervals. Because of this, a plastic profile can take the form of, for example:

 

  • Chain guides
  • Belt guides
  • Guide plastes
  • Wear strips
  • V-belt guides
  • Round cord guides
  • Belt guides

 

At Induflex, we can manufacture profiles in various shapes, such as C-profiles, T-profiles, U-profiles and Z-profiles.

Materials for plastic processing

When it comes to profiles, processing is often carried out in the plastic materials PEHD500, PEHD1000 and PEHD2000. This is because PEHD (High-Density Polyethylene) offers high wear resistance and low friction, while also being thermally and electrically insulating as well as noise-reducing.

 

In addition, it is a good choice due to its high strength, low friction and excellent wear resistance. Another advantageous option is PA (nylon), which is also widely used thanks to its high impact strength, hardness and wear resistance. However, it is sensitive to moisture.

 

All three materials are also food-grade plastics (FCM), making them a popular choice for products such as plastic profiles.

 

At Induflex, we can also manufacture plastic profiles in other plastic materials - all depending on the required quantity, colour or length.

Custom-made profiles

Plastic profiles are versatile and used across a wide range of industries thanks to their flexibility, durability and adaptability. They can be customised to precise requirements and offer unique properties that make them ideal for many purposes.

 

This applies to applications such as gliders, rails or protective elements. Here, the wear resistance and self-lubricating properties of plastic materials provide an effective solution for moving parts and industrial applications.

Production of plastic profiles

We manufacture your plastic profiles according to your dimensions, requirements and material preferences. We primarily use CNC machining, including 3- and 5-axis milling, to produce your customised profiles with precision, ensuring that they can be easily mounted afterwards.

 

All we need from you is a STEP file and a PDF of your drawing - or simply a sample of the profile you want us to produce.

 

When you need plastic profiles, we are ready to advise you on your specific project, helping you identify the right material for your application.

 

You are welcome to contact our specialists to learn more about the different materials and your available options.
