Selecting the right material for your manufacturing needs can be a complex process. However, Weaver Industries offers a wide range of high-quality urethane products that can meet your specific requirements. Browse below to learn more about the benefits of urethane over other materials such as rubber, metal, and plastic.

Advantages of Urethane Over Common Alternatives

Urethane VS Rubber:

• Abrasion resistant – Urethane is very resistant to cuts and tears.
• Bears heavy loads – Urethane can bear extreme weight without losing shape.
• Versatility in hardness – We can provide 30 shore “A” (soft) to 80 shore “D” (hard).
• Resistant to sunlight and weather
• Accepts Pigmentation – Urethane is available in grades that are completely clear, but it also accepts a wide variety of pigments making it easy to color-code your components.

Urethane VS Metal:

• Lighter weight – Lower weight means cheaper operation and easier handling.
• Less noise – Polyurethane absorbs vibration and dampens noise, whereas metal generates noise.
• Better wear – Urethane has terrific resistance to abrasion and corrosion.
• Cost effective – Urethane casting is cheaper. Welding and machining of metal parts can be time consuming and expensive.

Urethane VS Plastic:

• Memory – Urethane will return to its original shape when stretched.
• Cracking – Urethane won’t crack and break under impact and shock like other plastics.
• Resilience – Urethane has outstanding wear, abrasion and impact properties allowing for longer life.
• Versatility in hardness – Urethane is available in a wide range of durometers.
