ABS Sheet Rod

HONY®ABS Plastic (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a thermoplastic material that possesses medium strength and performance at medium cost. ABS is available in two basic types: Thermoforming Grade, and Machine Grade. Thermoforming grades of ABS Sheet range from unfilled general purpose (GP), to flame retardant versions (FR). Thermoforming grades of ABS can also be blended with PVC for greater impact-resistance(Kydex® and Boltaron®). Engineering Grade (aka Machine Grade) ABS is supplied in both Sheets & Rods, usually in two standard colors; Natural (Tan) or Black. These machine grade ABS stock shapes are intended for machined parts used in a variety of engineering applications. Additionally, Machine Grade ABS can be supplied upon request in specialty versions such as; flame-retardant or food grades.

ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) is a common thermoplastic used to make lightweight, rigid products such as automotive parts, piping and laboratory equipment. It is widely used for mechanical purposes, and also has good electrical properties. ABS is strong, rigid and tough and can withstand temperatures between -13 °F and 140 °F without affecting its impact resistance. Dimensional stability under load of ABS is excellent. ABS is resistant to aqueous acids, alkalis, hydrocholoric and phosphoric acids, alcohols and natural oils.

The corresponding HONY product brand of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer is HONY®ABS.
