ABS Plastic

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) is a versatile thermoplastic known for excellent impact resistance, good machinability, and attractive surface finishes.

COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL GRADE MATERIAL SPECIFICATION

Precision Machined • High Tolerance • Quality Inspected

Overview

About ABS Plastic

ABS combines the strength and rigidity of acrylonitrile and styrene polymers with the toughness of polybutadiene rubber. It is easy to machine, glue, and paint, making it one of the most popular plastics for structural housings, consumer products, and automotive interior parts. At Hong Ying Tooling, we mold and machine ABS to tight tolerances with consistent color and surface quality.
