How To Measure and Cut-To-Size Policy [X]


Cut-To-Size Items are Non-Returnable!

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).

2014-12-19Easy rod to get from Interstate Plastics and hard to find elsewhere. We appreciate the superb customer service.
2014-04-03Great product, great service. 4/5!
2013-10-29Thank you for selling turcite rodx! This is so hard to find and we are glad to finally have a reliable supplier we can count on.
2013-07-30Pretty much what everyone else said, an expensive but still competitively priced product hard to find elsewhere.
2013-07-19It aint cheap, but its a reliably good product from ip, apply it very thick and then machine it close to size. Then simply scrape it in.
2013-06-05This is a hard material to source and track down. Interstate has a great price point and I find it easier to order online. I cant find anyone else who sells Turcite online.
2012-10-19I was debating buying virgin Teflon for some machined bolts for my Crayford, but went with Turcite X due to as it has almost as low of friction/stiction as virgin Teflon but with much less cold flow. In addition Turcite machines well in processes such as turning, threading, milling, broaching, drilling, and boring. Go with it and talk to Bruce :)
