Description
This premium high-performance pressed and planed green sheet is an engineering plastic designed for demanding industrial applications. Manufactured to tight tolerances, it provides a stable, flat and consistent surface that is ideal for precision components, wear strips, guides and structural parts.
With outstanding abrasion resistance and excellent impact strength, this sheet material is well suited to heavy-duty environments such as conveyors, material handling systems, mechanical engineering, and general fabrication. Available in a range of thicknesses, it allows you to specify the right balance of rigidity, durability and weight for each project.
Product Features
- Pressed and planed green engineering plastic sheet for a smooth, consistent surface finish.
- Available in standard sheet size of 2000 mm length by 1000 mm width for easy handling and cutting.
- Multiple thickness options including 5 mm, 6 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 12 mm and several additional gauges to suit different load and wear requirements.
- High abrasion resistance for long service life in sliding, guiding and wear-intensive applications.
- Excellent impact strength to withstand shocks, knocks and dynamic loads in industrial environments.
- Dimensional stability and machinability, suitable for cutting, drilling and routing with standard workshop equipment.
- Distinctive green colour to aid material identification and segregation in production facilities.
Key Features and Benefits

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this green engineering plastic sheet be machined with standard workshop tools?
Yes, the sheet can typically be cut, drilled and machined using standard woodworking or metalworking tools with appropriate sharp cutters and sensible feed rates. Using suitable clamping and support will help maintain accuracy and surface finish.
How do I choose the right thickness of sheet for my application?
Select the thickness based on the expected load, span and wear conditions. Thinner sheets such as 5 mm or 6 mm are suitable for light-duty wear strips or liners, while thicker options like 8 mm, 10 mm or 12 mm and above are better for structural parts, heavily loaded guides or impact plates. If in doubt, allow a safety margin and consider a thicker gauge.
Is the sheet suitable for use in demanding industrial environments with heavy wear?
Yes, this product is specifically intended for demanding industrial use, offering high abrasion resistance and impact strength. When correctly specified and installed, it provides a long service life in wear-intensive and high-impact applications.
