Thermoplastic components

Thermoplastic componentsReplacing heavy, expensive metallic components with lightweight, resilient engineering plastics provides significant operational and cost benefits.

James Walker has the capabilities to mould, cast, extrude and machine a broad range of thermoplastic materials, many of which are ideally suited to marine applications and environments.

Our application and materials engineering teams work with customers to design seals and components for specific application requirements using the most suitable and cost-effective materials. In addition to a wide range of commercial engineering plastics, we formulate and manufacture our own range of Devlon thermoplastics.

Our facilities can produce anything from a single bespoke item machined out of solid billet to millions of injection moulded components, all with the back-up of 3D design, FEA analysis and rapid prototyping facilities.
