God of tubing! Zeus Industrial Inc Highly Recommended


Operations , Medical Device
07/08/2014

Speed 2 / Price 2 / Quality 4

Zeus Industrial Products Inc is the company we uses for custom products and tubing solutions for the use in our products. I can say that their services are customer oriented that gives satisfaction to their consumers. We are satisfied to their work and mostly to their highly reliable products. Their products are so dependable that we used to our products we mostly order a fair amount of PTF and FEP. The only i got so far are the orders for the custom tubing that is so long for shipping and their pricing for the small amount orders. their tubing fits good to our products so over all I can say that their products are recommended to other companies that need their services.

Strengths: -High Quality products
-Quality Custom Tubing Products
-Service Oriented
-Reliable
-Competitive Company
-Efficient and Effective
-Informative Website
-Wide selection of products

Needs to improve: Their custom tubing is so long to ship. we had to deal with their shipment of customs product and their products are unreasonable pricing for those orders that small amount

No Longer our First Choice for Fluropolymers


CEO/Owner , Medical Device

Speed 4 / Price 3 / Quality 4

For years Zeus has made great Fluropolymer Extrusions and Heat Shrink Tubing. They have become a mainstay in the medical device industry. Recently the FDA has started asking for more documentation regarding the material makeup. This is where your pains will start. Zeus's "proprietary" stance makes them unwanting to share the information a company needs to file with the FDA. It took us MONTHS to get basic resin information. Competitors provided it easily with actual documentation or their FDA Master File. Unfortunately Zeus is no longer our first choice when looking for Fluropolymers.

Strengths: Fluropolymer Tubing and Heat Shrink

Needs to improve: Lack for easily obtainable FDA documentation

Speed 3 / Price 3 / Quality 4

Any customer looking to use PET or PTFE should undoubtedly look to Zeus as a potential vendor. They carry a huge variety (most of which can be viewed at their website) and are open to sending a few samples (obviously extras from a previous run) for any prototyping needs. If your needs fall into their normal production, I wouldn’t look any further as they are the industry leader. Unfortunately, that’s where the fun ends. Even coming from a large company who has given them thousands of dollars in business, they are hesitant in committing to any job that doesn’t follow their cookie cutter process. Secondary processes are possible, but Zeus offers them at a steep price.

Strengths: PET Heat Shrink, PTFE Tubing, PTFE Beading

Needs to improve: Large company mentality who is unwilling to accept jobs that “push the envelope” without a quick ROI

Solutions to Heat Shrink Issues

Speed 4 / Price 3 / Quality 4

We order a fair amount of PTFE & FEP, most of the time it is on the shelf and readidly available, helps with us meeting production fluxuations. Also, we have ordered a fair amount of shring tubing from Zeus Industrial Products : available in a a variety of sizes, dimensions, and shrink ratios, material to address extreme heat, corrosion, shock, moisture and other critical conditions. The sales rep that takes care of us, by supplying accurate quotes, specifications, samples and helping us get through any issues with deliveries and shipments.

Strengths: custom tubing, ptfe, fep, high quality, accurate quotes, Customer service, Tooling services (custom sizes - lengths)

Needs to improve: They are limited at times by raw materials available, a certain type was discontinued and they were able to substitute a solution - got the job doen, can be a delay with custom sises & lengths - lead-time long

PTFE, FEP, ETC - Reliable Supplier

Speed 4 / Price 1 / Quality 4

My eperience has been generally positive. Ordering off the shelf products arrive quickly and their sales staff is considerate and attentive. Custom orders are going to be expensive and can vary in accuracy so be sure to keep that in mind.

Strengths: We regularly purchase PTFE and FEP tubes from Zeus. They have a wide selection of polymer based tubes in stock and can build material to your specifications.

Needs to improve: Although they carry a huge selection of tubes in stock, custom orders always tend to take a significant time with varied results that can be great or not so great. Zeus is considered an industry leader and are experts in this field, so prices are indicative of this. Expect to pay top dollar for any orders you throw at them.

Speed 4 / Price 4 / Quality 4

Great for all your plastic tubing needs. Many sizes and materials to choose from. Ask them for samples to make sure you get the right product. I did not use them for any custom designs. Just generic tubes

Strengths: Zeus has always been very responsive to my questions and inquires. They have taken the time to make sure we are getting the product that we want. They are large enough to be able to source just about any type of tubing we were looking for.

Needs to improve: They are some times limited by their raw material supplier. We have one product that that they are unable to source the raw material anymore but luckily they have products which are a good substitute.

Zeus works with us in our company in collaborative relationships to design, engineer and produce fluoropolymer and specialized plastic tubing that delivers the temperature resistance, lubricity, high tensile strength, and exceptionally tight tolerances demanded by today's challenging applications. We have never been disappointed. In fact, Zeus has delivered engineered tubing solutions such as PTFE SLW tubing for catheter liners, fluoropolymer heat shrink for electrical and mechanical applications, high-purity tubing for critical fluid handling, as well as multi-lumen tubing for catheters and high performance data cables that we mainly used in our company.

Strengths: Certified manufacturer of standard & custom fluoropolymer extruded tubing & heat shrinkable tubing, monofilament & miniature rods, glass filled mandrels & profiles.

I've ordered a ton of shrink tubing from Zeus. Some runs have been great while others have been hit or miss. Luckily we have a good rep that takes care of us. He goes the extra mile to make sure we get the parts that meet our specifications. I consult for a huge corporation so I guess they would hate to be taken off our ASL. In general, they provide good quality but sometimes you gust have to keep on them to get what you need.

Strengths: Heat shrink tubing

Needs to improve: Issues vary on what you order and your sales rep

They are one of the main stock in our facility we use when we need the lab restocked. They are some items that are considerably cheaper while others may be a bit more costly. They have samples you can order that can be ordered with ease from their site so you can test out all the stuff you need and want before you commit to a full order. They have a wonderful customer service who are very helpful and willing to do what they need to help.

Strengths: great quality components

They were unable to deliver a custom Teflon tube that they quoted. We had to find an alternative after waiting a long time.

Strengths: they have products you can't get elsewhere. They do custom work

Needs to improve: They over promise at times.

Speed 3 / Price 3 / Quality 4

having used their off the shelf heat shrink at many companies, i’ve seen very good quality from their parts over the years for both ptfe and fep. the issue comes when their raw material source has a problem, which creates a domino effect. it hasn’t happened many times, but when you’re practicing just in time manufacturing, delays can get costly.

Strengths: custom tubing, ptfe, fep, high quality

Needs to improve: customization can get costly; have had issues with their raw material sourcing causing delayed product shipment

Speed 4 / Price 4 / Quality 4

Zeus is my main source for fluoropolymer and PEEK extrusion. They are willing to try to manufacture tubing to my challenging specs and try to accommodate my timelines. One thing to keep in mind is that Zeus does consider all of their manufacturing information (including material sometimes) to be proprietary, so be sure to ask for exactly what you want in terms of certification and colorants up front.

Strengths: Heat Shrink Tubing, PTFE Liners, PEEK Extrusion

Needs to improve: Zeus considers all information proprietary

I have used Zeus products for several years. The FEP and PTFE Heat Shrink Tubing is outstanding. I am now just starting to use them for custom extrusions. So far the extrusions have met all my needs.

Colorant companies that have supplied Zeus doesn't not have tight controls on their products. Zeus was unaware of the issues, but reacted quickly when the problem was identified. When a problem occurs, they are a good team to collaborate with and will help make sure that the problems are solved.

Strengths: Teflon Materials, a company that is known by the FDA and most companies have worked with this group
