Frequently Asked Questions
Can this plastic sheet be cut and machined with standard workshop tools?
Yes. The sheet is designed for easy fabrication and can be cut, drilled, routed and machined using standard metalworking or woodworking equipment with appropriate blades and cutting speeds.
Is the sheet suitable for high-wear applications such as conveyor wear strips?
Yes. Its excellent abrasion resistance and impact strength make it well suited for wear strips, guides and other high-wear components in conveyor and material-handling systems.
How do I choose the right thickness of sheet for my application?
Select the thickness based on the load, span and impact your component will experience. Thinner sheets (e.g. 5–6mm) are typically used for liners and guards, while thicker sheets (8mm and above) are preferred for structural parts, heavily loaded wear strips and machined components.
