Precision Matters: Tolerances and Quality Control in Extrusion

Precision Matters: Tolerances and Quality Control in Extrusion

In plastic extrusion, precision isn’t just a detail — it’s the difference between a part that fits and a part that fails. For OEMs, even small deviations in wall thickness, diameter, or profile can cause costly issues in assembly and performance. At Lincoln Plastics, we make precision a priority through tight tolerances and rigorous quality control.

Why Precision Matters

When extrusion profiles are inconsistent, the problems cascade:

• Parts that don’t fit as designed
• Increased scrap and rework costs
• Delays in assembly and production
• Compromised product performance in the field

That’s why Lincoln Plastics invests time and expertise into ensuring every extrusion meets the specs our customers depend on.

Our Quality Control Approach

We combine technology with hands-on expertise to deliver precision:

• Regular in-line checks during production to monitor consistency
• Calibrated measurement tools for accurate dimensions
• Documented inspection processes to maintain traceability
• Continuous improvement mindset that drives efficiency and reliability

The OEM Advantage

For engineers and purchasing managers, working with a partner who prioritizes tolerances and quality means:

• Reduced downtime caused by ill-fitting parts
• Greater confidence in supply chain reliability
• Improved product reputation thanks to consistent performance

Precision You Can Count On

At Lincoln Plastics, we believe that precision is part of reliability. By holding ourselves to strict standards, we ensure that every extrusion we deliver helps our customers achieve their own performance goals.
