Nylon 6/6, HDPE, UHMW and PTFE rod diameters and sheet thicknesses: stock sizes from distributor lists (inch and mm)

sizes

153 in table

Notes

• Every row is a size one source lists, mostly for stock rod and sheet in the US. There is no single standard: plastic rod comes in nominal inch sizes (extruded rod is cut oversize so a part can be machined to nominal; Online Metals' PTFE listing states '+ 0.028 in OD' on the 1/2 in oversized rod) and in metric nominal diameters in Europe. A size listed under one source and not another does not mean it does not exist.
• Rod: nylon 6/6 from eplastics (natural 2.75 to 6 in on page 2, four more from product pages, glass-filled in mm; its size filter for the whole 43-item nylon category runs 0.06, 0.093, 0.125, 0.187, 0.25, 0.312, 0.375, 0.437, 0.5, 0.562, 0.625, 0.75, 0.875, 1, 1.125, 1.25, 1.375, 1.5, 1.75, 1.875, 2, 2.25, 2.375, 2.5, 2.75 ... 6 in, mixing forms, so it is quoted here and not tabulated) and Zoro / Online Metal Supply listing titles; UHMW from Alcobra (8 sizes) and Online Metals titles (3/4, 1 agree with Alcobra, 2-1/2, 3 agree, 2-3/4 is Online Metals only); HDPE rod from Bearing Boys (29 metric sizes; no inch HDPE rod list was read); PTFE from CS Hyde (13 diameters: 25 of its 46 items were read, the rest are on page 2 of its list) and Online Metals (18 listings). CS Hyde and Online Metals both list 3/16, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 9/16; CS Hyde prints them as .187, .25, .313, .375, .438, .563 in its item numbers (the nominal fraction is on the same row).
• Sheet: HDPE sheet thickness options for 48 x 96 in from U.S. Plastic Corp (1/32 to 1 in); UHMW from Online Metals (41 results, first 25 read; includes reprocessed black and green plate) and Zoro titles; nylon 6/6 sheet from Zoro titles only (thin source); PTFE sheet: no distributor table was read, the KINTEK FAQ's metric thicknesses are shown and flagged as secondary. Alro's Megasheet page gives UHMW 3/8 to 4 in and HDPE / PP 1-3/4 to 4 in for 8 x 20 ft (and 48 x 96, 60 x 120, 96 x 240 in) sheets; Sandhill and eplastics sheet tables were not read.
• Acetal (Delrin) rod sizes: acetal-delrin-rod-diameters. Acrylic and polycarbonate sheet: acrylic-and-polycarbonate-sheet-thickness. O-ring cord stock: o-ring-cord-stock-sizes.
• No STEP/STL: rod and sheet are plain cylinders and boxes.
