Supporting the Oil & Gas Industry with Precision Injection Molding: Metro Custom Plastics Leads the Way in DFW

Created at : May 13, 2025

In the oil and gas industry, where extreme temperatures, high pressures, and chemical exposure are the norm, equipment reliability is non-negotiable. That’s where Metro Custom Plastics, a leading injection molding company based in the Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW) area, delivers unmatched value. With advanced manufacturing capabilities and strategic regional advantages, Metro Custom Plastics is a trusted partner for oil & gas suppliers seeking durable, high-performance plastic components.

Precision-Engineered Parts for Harsh Environments

Oil & gas operations—from offshore drilling platforms to shale gas wells—require components that can withstand punishing conditions. Metro Custom Plastics specializes in injection molding of advanced polymers to create parts tailored to these challenges, including:

Seals & Gaskets

  • Custom O-rings, back-up rings, and V-rings
  • Chemically resistant gaskets for pumps and valves
  • Long-lasting materials designed for extreme pressure and temperature cycles

Valve & Pump Components

  • Injection-molded valve seats, impellers, and diaphragms
  • Precision fit and high-strength performance for fluid control systems

Pipe Fittings & Connectors

  • Threaded/non-threaded couplings, adapters, and end caps
  • Corrosion-resistant alternatives to metal components

Electrical Insulators & Housings

  • Cable insulation, electrical connectors, and sensor housings
  • Non-conductive, flame-retardant, and weather-resistant materials

Wear & Friction Components

  • Bearing cages, wear pads, bushings, and guide rings
  • Built to reduce downtime and withstand continuous mechanical motion

By using high-performance materials like PEEK, PTFE, Nylon, Polyurethane, and glass-filled polymers, Metro ensures each component delivers strength, chemical resistance, and thermal stability—meeting the rigorous standards of oilfield applications.


The DFW Advantage: Strategic Location, Faster Turnaround

Being headquartered in the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex offers Metro Custom Plastics a distinct logistical edge:

  • Proximity to major oil & gas hubs in Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana
  • Access to DFW International Airport and multiple interstates (I-20, I-35, I-45), allowing for rapid distribution
  • Reduced shipping costs and shorter lead times for regional customers
  • A deep local talent pool with experience in energy-sector manufacturing

Whether it’s supplying components for a refinery upgrade in Houston or supporting pipeline maintenance in West Texas, Metro’s location enables responsive production and efficient delivery.
