MatWeb solidworks files for materials
(OP)
Has anyone bought the $50 subscription to this website? They now have a big database of material physical propereties that they say will download right into the solidworks material database. If it works, I think $50 is worth it.

However the names are sometimes extremely long and all the color properties are set to gray no matter what it is. What we usually do is format the database names and color selections and then copy and paste it into the main Solidworks material database. That way there is only one database that we have to maintain. That database can then be put onto a network and shared among your peers.
