As per our Shipping and Returns Policy, custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-returnable. If you need an over- or undersized item, note it under "Comments" during Checkout. Cut-to-size orders have an acceptable cut tolerance of 1/8" (0.125"), so clarify if the adjustment is to be made on the (+) or (-) side of the saw blade.Please review our full return and shipping policy here.
Measure Twice, Cut Once
Since custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-refundable, be very careful while measuring your dimensions. As each cut is nominal, even the slightest miscalculation could be costly.
How to Use a Measuring Tape
Extend your tape measure several inches to find the 1 and 2 inch markers. In between the inch markers you’ll find 16 equally spaced tick marks.
Measure by counting the increments beyond the nearest inch. As the increments decrease, so does the length of the mark. For example, 1/2" has a bigger mark than 1/4" which has a bigger mark than 1/8". The smallest mark follows at 1/16". Please be aware that some measuring tapes may have even smaller increments.
Features of a Measuring Tape: Sliding End Hook
The sliding end hook is designed for two different types of measurements. An outside measurement (where the hook of the tape hangs over an edge), requires the hook to slide out a bit to account for the thickness of the material. When making an inside measurement (where the hook will push up against a surface), the clip slides in, again, accounting for its thickness. The measuring tape self-adjusts to guarantee an accurate measurement (as far as the tape is concerned).
PEEK is high temperature-resistant engineered thermoplastic with excellent chemical and fatigue resistance and thermal stability. PEEK exhibits superior mechanical and electrical properties with a maximum continuous working temperature of 480°F and excellent retention of mechanical properties up to 570°F in a steam or high-pressure water environment. Superior chemical resistance has allowed PEEK to work effectively as a metal/stainless steel replacement in harsh environments, and has proven to be a reliable replacement for other materials that cost up to 10 times more.

Ordering was straightforward and easy. We called them, gave the dimensions and were able to pick the PEEK up on our own truck later that week. Friendly folks.

We run this in bearings, full continuous use at 135 Celsius (that's 275F for you americans) and it holds up great. The wear life is pretty incredible for the heat. Reasonable pricing, shipping took longer than expected but they informed me it would, and customer service was excellent.

We really appriciate all the sourcing help interstate plastics has given us. They guided us to peek after many a conversation over our applications and what we were trying to accomplish with bearings. A great honest and PATIENT company.

The best price on the web. I've ordered three times, one order took almost three weeks. Besides that incident ive been very pleased.

Very easy to order from Interstate Plastics. We have called in our orders and ordered online and both ways were quick and hassle free.

A reliable product but the specs should be listed. PEEK has a poor resistance to certain acids in concentrated form, as we found out with phosphoric and oxalic acids.

The best high heat material I know of for bearings. We purchase regularly and have rarely had a problem. The one or two times we did have an issue (two of the rods came damaged), Interstate fixed everything quickly and got us new material.

I would really like to see Interstate stock more PEEK on the east coast, but you guys have the best price. It's still cheaper after shipping. PLEASE STOCK MORE!
