Abstract: Recent increases in the price of natural gas have caused gas consumers to place more emphasis on gas measurement accuracy. Gas meter and regulator manufacturers must therefore continually search for new ways lo improve ihe performance of their products. These improvements might be in the form of a new mechnical device to be installed in a meter or regulator or simply the making of an existing part from a more durable or better performing material, One of todays more common methods of improving performance of gas meters and regulators is through the use of plastic materials. Properly applied, plastic materials can be used for a wide variety of applications. Some of the important characteristics of these materials are: 1. Wide Variety of Materials and Properties 2. High Lubricity with Low Coefficients of Friction 3. Corrosion Resistant 4. Good Wear Characteristics 5. Lightweight 6. Can be Molded into Intricate Shapes to Perform More ihan One Function 7. No Machining Operations
