Our manufacturing capabilities and collaborative solutions- based technical services have been trusted for decades to create specialized and purpose-engineered composite rods, tubes, and custom shapes.

Soft-touch thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) overmolded onto a lightweight paddleshaft made of Avient’s advanced composite materials can help add to the experience and avoid annoyances such as blisters. BRINGING SOFTNESS TO A ROUGH RIDE SENSORY EXPERIENCE Copyright © 2020, Avient Corporation.

Pultrusion can be used to make products of virtually any length, such as beams, channels, pipes, tubing, fishing rods, and golf club shafts. To start, it’s best to know the kind of environment in which your product will be and what kind of properties you need (e.g., heat or water resistant, hard or soft, color).

Often, a white–flash–white–flash print order using a finer mesh has dramatic impact on the softness of the print and keeps the opacity of the colors.
