Injection Molding Materials
Choosing the right injection molding material can make or break your project. Our comprehensive guide helps you quickly compare options based on strength, flexibility, and heat resistance, so you can confidently select the ideal material for prototypes, production parts, or custom designs—ensuring high-quality results every time.
PC+GF
Type: PC+GF
Impact Resistance, Strength, Aging Resistance
PC+GF (polycarbonate + glass fiber reinforced composite material) is a reinforced engineering plastic made by adding glass fiber (abbreviated as GF) to a polycarbonate (PC) matrix. The addition of glass fiber can significantly improve the mechanical properties and stability of pure PC while retaining some of PC’s excellent inherent properties, making it suitable for scenarios with high requirements for strength, rigidity, and dimensional accuracy. It features high strength, high rigidity, and heat resistance, and is ideal for automotive parts, electrical enclosures, and structural components.
TPU
Type: TPU
Impact Resistance, Wear Resistant, Chemical Resistant, Aging Resistance
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane), commonly known as urethane rubber, is a thermoplastic elastomer. It features excellent elasticity, abrasion resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance, and is widely used in applications such as mobile phone cases (soft shells), sports shoe soles, and medical catheters.
PC+ABS
Type: PC+ABS
Impact Resistance, Strength
PC+ABS is a blend-modified material that combines the advantages of both materials. It not only inherits the high impact resistance of PC but also the material strength of ABS, while improving its heat resistance. It is often used in electronic product casings, automotive interiors, consumer products, and more.

It features excellent elasticity, abrasion resistance, and chemical corrosion resistance, and is widely used in applications such as mobile phone cases (soft shells), sports shoe soles, and medical catheters.
PA (Nylon)
Type: PA (Nylon)
Wear Resistance, Strength, Chemical Resistant, Self-lubrication
Nylon is a versatile and widely used material in CNC machining due to its exceptional properties. Its high tensile strength, low coefficient of friction, and resistance to wear and abrasion make it an excellent choice for applications requiring durability and reliability, such as gears, bushings, and bearings. Additionally, nylon’s low moisture absorption and good dimensional stability ensure consistent performance even in humid or varying temperature conditions.
Its ease of machining, coupled with its chemical resistance, also makes it suitable for applications in the automotive, aerospace, and medical industries. With its remarkable combination of properties, nylon stands out as a versatile and reliable material for a diverse range of CNC machining applications.
POM (Delrin)
Type: POM (Delrin)
Impact Resistance, Chemical Resistant
Polyoxymethylene (POM) is a premium high-performance engineering plastic. Known for its metal-like mechanical strength, it offers exceptional hardness, rigidity, impact and fatigue resistance, as well as outstanding wear resistance and self-lubrication. POM also provides excellent dimensional stability, strong chemical resistance, and ease of processing. With this unique combination of properties, it has become a preferred material across industries such as machinery, automotive, electronics, and medical devices—making it an ideal replacement for metal in manufacturing high-precision, wear-resistant components.
