Metal ReplacementEngineering Plastics for Metal Components

Manufacturing by our in-house factory in Taiwan (Shang Ho Plastics). We help customers across industries replace metal components with PPS, PA+GF, and related engineering plastics.

Live Demo | PPS+GF

Before exploring this site, take five seconds to listen to the sound below.

Five-second PPS+GF impact demo; sound similar to metal.

This is not a metal plate. It is an actual PPS+GF part, and the impact sounds similar to metal.

Engineering plastics outperform metal in many respects, though limits remain. They have changed how we think about plastic parts.

Many of our customers are already developing products with engineering plastics.

Three Main Reasons to Replace Steel with Plastics

Three reasons customers evaluate engineering plastics over metal.

Weight Reduction

For the same function, structural optimization can meet strength requirements while typically saving 20–50% or more versus metal. Critical for performance- and weight-sensitive applications.

Chemical and Corrosion Resistance

Use as-molded in acids, solvents, or long-term wet environments, with no anodizing, plating, or secondary finishing required.

Lower Volume Production Cost

At sufficient volume, once tooling is amortized, per-piece cost is typically lower than CNC metal machining.
