Yet certain plastics remain tricky to machine.
Machinable plastic sheet.
Machinability relates to the relative ease of machining a plastic using various tools available to the general public.
It meets ul 94v0 for flame retardance.
Machining of plastics can be advantageous for applications requiring low volume production close tolerance dimensions and or difficult to mold configurations.
Abs plastic abs acrylonitrile butadiene styrene is a widely used thermoplastic polymer found in everything from the popular lego toys to automotive parts.
It is easily machined and ideal for turning drilling milling sawing die cutting and shearing.
Machinable plastics exhibit a large variety of physical and chemical properties so it is important to test which one will work the best for you.
Plastic angles used in light structural applications in wet industrial environments agricultural settings and in the marine industry are a common shape.
Abs machinable plastic is a tough rigid thermoplastic material with high impact strength.
