Formable Polyethelene Plastic Sheet

Petg thermoform plastic sheets petg polyethylene terephthalate is a transparent thermoform plastic that offers cost effective vacuum formed parts with deep draws and precise details.

Formable polyethelene plastic sheet.

The correct resin selection is essential to provide sheet that will perform properly. These materials resist corrosion and provide electrical insulation. Heat guns and toaster ovens have proven the best diy method for our customers. Plastic sheets and film are polymers that supply material for injection molding machining packaging construction electronics signs and other applications.

Polyethylene sheets and bars compared to our standard uhmw polyethylene these sheets and bars hold up better to scuffs and scrapes in high speed high precision and high impact applications such as conveyor equipment chute liners and machine guards. The acrylic petg and polycarbonate sheets are normally clear can be special ordered in colors however the polycarbonate may have to be heat dried prior to the vacuum forming temperature phase depending on thickness. Kydex can be easily cut to size by scoring and cutting sheets with a razor or similar knife. Plastic film is thinner and more flexible than plastic sheets and is often transparent or translucent.

The only absolute requirement for bending and forming kydex is heating the sheet until soft when the material becomes formable. The result is a sheet that has the proper sag during the thermoforming operation assuring even material distribution and wall thickness. Also known as tivar hpv.
