abs plastic
ABS Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene |
| ABS PLATE |
ABS is easily machined and may be
bored, turned, drilled, milled, sawed,
die-cut, routed and sheared using
high-speed carbide-tipped tools.
ABS plate can also be filed, sanded,
ground, buffed and polished. |
| PROPERTIES |
High rigidity and impact strength.
Excellent abrasion resistance.
Excellent electrical properties,
moisture, and creep resistance.
ABS resists inorganic salts,
alkalies and many acids. |
| APPLICATIONS |
Machine parts and rollers. |
| ABS SHEET |
ABS combines toughness and rigidity
with chemical, stress-cracking,
and creep resistance.
Extruded ABS sheet can be easily
thermoformed with excellent mold detail
with most conventional equipment. |
| COMMON APPLICATIONS: |
Automotive interior and exterior trim.
Lab equipment, luggage, office accessories. |
