ABS Rod

ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene) is commonly used in thermoforming, vacuum forming, drilling, cutting-to-size, CNC cutting, routing, pressure forming, shearing, sawing, cold stamping, ultrasonic welding, thermo welding, and chemical bonding. .

Absylux® ABS is a low cost engineering plastic that is easy to machine and fabricate. ABS Engineering Rod is an ideal material for structural applications when impact resistance, strength, and stiffness are required. It is widely used for machining pre-production prototypes since it has excellent dimensional stability and is easy to paint and glue. ABS Engineering Rod is sold and priced by the foot. Stock Maximum Single Rod Length: 8ft
