ABS
ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is one of the most versatile thermoplastic materials. Because of its impact strength, chemical resistance, color options and excellent aesthetic qualities, a variety of products can be manufactured. ABS can be easily machined making this the material of choice for parts that are turned, drilled, milled sawed, die cut and routed. It is commonly used to make lightweight, rigid products such as automotive parts, piping and laboratory equipment. Other applications include aircraft interior trim, luggage, tote bins and trays, water purification equipment and computer housings.
