The Materials Handbook by George S. Brady, Henry H. Clauser and John A Vacarri has been a trusted resource for over 50 years. We have used it since our days at Small Parts Inc., and even offered it for sale in our catalog. It is a great resource for anyone working with plastics and/or metals and need or want to know what the various properties are and why it should be used or not used in various applications. It is an expensive book and you can find it on Amazon.com for about $75. We are giving one away for free through a drawing on our facebook page. All you have to do is visit our facebook page and "like" the post about this giveaway that was posted on 12/3/2013 to be entered into the drawing.
We are trying to get more people involved in our facebook page. We would like it to be a place where we can share product and application information and for customers to come and get ideas or practical information about the products they use. We are coupling this with our new youtube videos. These videos are instructional videos about our products or product reviews. We believe that, over time, the combination of our website, youtube and social media sites such as facebook and google plus we can be a useful resource to the research and development community as well as a valuable supplier.
