ABS

ABS sheet has high-impact strength with a textured hair-cell finish on one side. Great for appliance covers, crisper trays, instrument panels.
  • Size: 4\' x 8\' x .093", 4\' x 8\' x .125", 4\' x 8\' x .187", 4\' x 8\' x .250", 4\' x 8\' x .375"
  • Color: black

PVC

PVC sheet is high-impact and chemical resistant. Use for chemical storage, tanks, towers, oil tanks, and photographic developing instruments. Easy to fabricate with strong glue joints.
  • Size: 4\' x 8\' x .060", 4\' x 8\' x .125", 4\' x 8\' x .187", 4\' x 8\' x .250"
  • Color: dark grey

Ultra-White PVC

Ultra-White PVC sheet is an advanced PVC formulation designed specifically for outdoor applications where resistance to ultraviolet (UV) degradation is critical. High-gloss white finish reduces absorption of heat energy. High strength-to-weight ratio assures extra wear resistance in applications which may be subjected to high impact stress. Excellent machinability.
  • Size: 4\' x 8\' x .125", 4\' x 8\' x .250"
  • Color: ultra-white

Foam PVC

Foam PVC is an economical sign material that can be cut, drilled, and line bent. It is opaque enough to use for double-faced signs.

  • Colors: white, black, gray, red, green, light yellow, dark blue
  • Size: 4\' x 8\' x .236" (1/4")
  • Colors: white, black

Styrene High-Impact

Styrene High-Impact sheet has excellent forming properties, is nontoxic, odorless, and dimensionally stable. Indoor applications: signs, models, boxes, toys, and more.
  • Sizes: 4\' x 8\' x .060", 4\' x 8\' x .125"
  • Color: white

GEHR (Thermoplastic Polymer)

Acetal sheet is a thermoplastic polymer with a high-melting point. It is suited for mechanical parts and electrical insulators. It has great strength, stiffness, abrasion resistance, and elasticity. Parts can be used for continuous exposure to temperatures up to 185¡F. It fabricates easily with either machines or hand tools.
  • Sizes: 2\' x 4\' x .250", 2\' x 4\' x .375", 2\' x 4\' x .500"
Acetal Rod is a tough stable thermoplastic offering a unique combination of properties. Excellent resistance to moisture, gasoline, solvents, and many other neutral chemicals.
  • High mechanical strength and rigidity
