OT: Anyone in the Plastic Supply Industry??
 

I have been looking around the net with out much luck, so i figured i post here since i usually get answers quicker though you guys/girls :).

I am looking for a Low Density Polyethelyne material in multiple colors (black,red,blue,grey,yellow). The reason for that particular Poly is only because of the high impact, and easy machinability properties (and the low cost - as compared to nylon). I need 1" thick plates.

If anyone knows where to find this material in colors, or knows of a similar material that does come in colors, Holler Back!!

Thanks

did you look at Kingplastics.com ? i was browsing around there the other day . they may be able to help you

I talked to KingPlastics. They told me it can come in colors, but it has to be purchased in large minimum qauntities...and they only sell to distributers.

I buy my plastic through McMaster-Carr, who uses KingPlastics. King told me to ask McMaster if they carry colored Poly...they don't. :rolleyes:

Try www.stellarplastics.com

Try this place- I have purchased small quantities of plastic from them.
