Afton's engineers know how to use each material's thermal, cryogenic, mechanical, electrical, and general physical properties to best advantage. They know how a material performs under different environmental conditions. Ongoing contacts with resin manufacturers keep them tuned in to the latest material innovations.

Combining our thorough knowledge of available resins with a skill for fabrication innovation, the latest CAD-CAM techniques, and years of experience in solving thermoplastics design problems, we have a unique ability to create a component design that embodies the best of scientific discipline and creative freedom.

Whenever precision-engineered thermoplastics are required to perform to critical tolerances, industry calls on Afton:

• In mechanical applications where strength over wide temperature ranges is crucial.
• In nuclear applications when radiation resistance is paramount.
• In medical and laboratory instrumentation applications that call for strict chemical inertness and stability.
• In electrical applications where a component's electrical and/or thermal properties are of major consequence.
• In cryogenic applications when low temperature sealing is essential.

Afton has proven its superior capabilities time and again in small, prototype projects and in projects requiring production-size runs.
