Description
ABS Plastic is tough, durable, and non-shattering with a haircell pattern front that hides dirt and scratches and a smooth back. ABS sheets are commonly used in automotive parts but have countless applications around the home, shop, and factory. Sheets can easily be cut, milled, and drilled with any standard tools (hacksaw, jigsaw, snips for thin sheets, standard drill bit, etc.) without the cracking or fracturing you would find in Plexiglass. Additionally, ABS sheets can be bent neatly. Thin sheets can be bent cold with sheet metal techniques, while thicker ones are easy to shape with the help of a heat gun. It is also perfect for thermoforming or vacuum forming. These sheets have a versatile double-sided design, where one side has a textured haircell pattern and the other side is smooth. Choose the size you want to use! Exclusive EasyRuler Protective Film makes work even easier, measure, mark, and draw on the film and then just satisfyingly peel it off to expose a pristine, smooth, clear sheet. Polycarbonate is just about as easy to work with as wood but with all the benefits of a strong, semi-flexible plastic sheet. Use simple tools like snips for thin sheets or a power saw with a plastics blade for cutting, as well as standard drill bits to make holes. The haircell pattern on these sheets makes them amazingly resistant and able to hide wear, dirt, and scratches. ABS plastic makes great durable plastic sheets. ABS plastic is easy to cut and comes with EasyRuler film to make following lines easier. Can be cut with saws such as a hack saw, circular saw, table saw, or jigsaw if equipped with a suitable blade. You can also use tin snips for 1/32" and 1/16" sheets, or CNC machines Haircell ABS sheets are easy to drill. Use the crossing lines to space out holes with ease in these black durable plastic sheets Unlike plexiglass or acrylic, ABS panels can be drilled without cracking or shattering. ABS is easy to bend with heat. Thin plastic sheets can be cold bent too. ABS boards can be formed into different shapes with just a typical hand held heat gun. These ABS sheets are often used for vacuum forming or thermoforming too. EasyRuler film makes shapes easy to follow and keeps the plastic surface clean until you are ready to peel. Mark your work the protective film, make the cuts and peel to reveal a protected and pristine surface.
