Excellent electrical properties, moisture and creep resistance
ABS has good chemical and stress cracking resistance to inorganic salt solutions, alkalis and many acids (Except strong oxidizing acids)
ABS is easily machined to close tolerances, is tough, dimensionally stable and may be thermoformed
Automotive interior and exterior
Aircraft interior trims
Home appliances
Architectural model buildings & Prototype Models
Luggage
Machine parts and rollers
Pipes & Fittings
Trays
Cut to size service is available
Can be machined, turned, drilled, milled, sawed, bored, die-cut, routed and sheared using high speed carbide-tipped tools
Can be machine finished by filing, grinding, sanding, buffing and polishing
Our stock range of ABS consists of different grades, such as virgin grade, economy grade, acrylic capped and flame retardant, in smooth and embossed finishes.
ABS lends itself towards a great number of applications, such as cases, automotive applications, encasings and durable point of sale applications.
We can also provide bespoke colours, finishes and grades in ABS and therefore offer you the right colour, finish and grade for your particular project.
The most widely used engineering thermoplastic today
Formed by the polymerisation of styrene and acrylonitrile on to thermoplastic rubber which is then melt compounded with styrene acrylonitrile
The combinations of the copolymers gives ABS plastic sheets excellent surface appearance that is scratch resistant
It has stronger, stiffer and tougher properties than high impact polystyrene (HIPS)
Superior resistance to high temperatures and chemicals than HIPS.
