Nylon 6/6, HDPE, UHMW and PTFE rod diameters and sheet thicknesses: stock sizes from distributor lists (inch and mm) — dimension sheet Source: Xem Studio, https://xemstudio.com/objects/nylon-hdpe-uhmw-ptfe-rod-and-sheet-sizes/ (sheet CC BY 4.0) Basis: eplastics, Alcobra, Online Metals, CS Hyde, Bearing Boys, U.S. Plastic and Zoro listings; numbers only, listed by source because no single standard table exists Catalog version: 2026-10-20 Sizes: see table below - 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. material form size as printed mm source note nylon 6/6 rod 2.75 in 69.85 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 3 in 76.20 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 3.25 in 82.55 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 3.5 in 88.90 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 3.75 in 95.25 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 4 in 101.60 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 4.5 in 114.30 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 5 in 127.00 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 5.5 in 139.70 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 6 in 152.40 eplastics (natural, page 2) — nylon 6/6 rod 1.125 in 28.57 eplastics (product page, natural) — nylon 6/6 rod 1.375 in 34.92 eplastics (product page, natural) — nylon 6/6 rod 1.875 in 47.62 eplastics (product page, natural) — nylon 6/6 rod 2.375 in 60.32 eplastics (product page, natural) — nylon 6/6 rod 3/8 in 9.52 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 3/4 in 19.05 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1 in 25.40 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1-1/8 in 28.57 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1-3/8 in 34.92 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1-5/8 in 41.27 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1-3/4 in 44.45 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 2-1/2 in 63.50 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 2-3/4 in 69.85 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 3 in 76.20 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 4-1/2 in 114.30 Zoro Select listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1/2 in 12.70 Online Metal Supply listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 1-1/4 in 31.75 Online Metal Supply listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 4-1/2 in 114.30 Online Metal Supply listing title — nylon 6/6 rod 6 in 152.40 Online Metal Supply listing title — nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 12 mm 12 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 20 mm 20 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 25 mm 25 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 35 mm 35 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 40 mm 40 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 50 mm 50 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 60 mm 60 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 80 mm 80 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) nylon 6/6, glass-filled rod 100 mm 100 eplastics metric sizes (12 to 100 mm) UHMW (natural) rod 3/4 in 19.05 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 1 in 25.40 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 1-1/2 in 38.10 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 2 in 50.80 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 2-1/2 in 63.50 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 3 in 76.20 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 3-1/2 in 88.90 Alcobra Metals — UHMW (natural) rod 4 in 101.60 Alcobra Metals — UHMW rod 3/4 in 19.05 Online Metals listing title (oversized black / natural) — UHMW rod 1 in 25.40 Online Metals listing title (oversized black / natural) — UHMW rod 2-1/2 in 63.50 Online Metals listing title (oversized black / natural) — UHMW rod 2-3/4 in 69.85 Online Metals listing title (oversized black / natural) — UHMW rod 3 in 76.20 Online Metals listing title (oversized black / natural) — HDPE rod 10 mm 10 Bearing Boys black and natural;
