Types of plastic rings

At ANKRO, we specialize in the production of plastic rings for various technical applications such as sealing, fastening and spacing. Choosing a specific type of plastic ring depends on several factors, such as the load, environmental conditions and the size required. Some rings are designed to provide additional stability or protection, while others are characterized by precision and low friction. Common variants include:

  • Rings with collar - Offer extra grip and stability, often used in mounting and sealing systems.
  • Large plastic rings - Suitable for applications requiring larger diameters and increased wear resistance.
  • Precision spacer rings - Are used in precision mechanical applications where minimum tolerances are essential.
  • Plastic D-rings - Often used for fastening and tensile loads, for example in conveyor belts and mechanical systems.

At ANKRO, we have been machining plastic rings that meet strict tolerances and technical specifications for more than 25 years to perfectly suit our customers' needs.

The best plastics for plastic rings: From polyethylene to PTFE

The choice of material for plastic rings is crucial to both performance and ring life. Two commonly used materials are PTFE and POM.

PTFE rings are often used when the rings must perform under extreme temperatures or when exposed to harsh chemicals. This is because PTFE is both chemically resistant and heat resistant. POM rings, on the other hand, are frequently used in various applications due to their excellent strength and low friction. This makes them ideal for use in automotive and mechanical engineering, where precision and durability are essential.

In addition, industrial plastic rings made of various plastics, such as polyamide (PA) and polythene (PE), are widely used as seals, spacers and other components. These washers contribute to the efficiency and service life of machinery and equipment due to their excellent wear resistance and durability. Each material offers unique advantages, and at ANKRO we are happy to help you make the right choice based on the specific application of your product.

Advantages of plastic rings over metal rings

When choosing between plastic and metal rings, plastic rings offer significant advantages. First of all, plastic rings are much lighter than metals, which makes them suitable for applications where weight plays a crucial role. Unlike metal rings, plastic rings are resistant to corrosion and often offer better protection against harsh chemicals and temperature fluctuations. In addition, plastic rings are often more cost-effective, as production costs are lower and they are easier to process than metal rings.
