Plating is a process where a conductive surface is covered with a thin layer of metal. It is commonly used to prevent corrosion, increase durability, alter surface friction, and improve appearance.
ABS
CNC MACHINING / High stability, Easy to machine
▁▁▁▁▁▁
Introduction
ABS, also known as Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, offers a good balance of impact, heat,
chemical and abrasion resistance, dimensional stability, tensile strength, surface hardness, rigidity and electrical characteristics.
ABS can undergo various post-processing treatments, including coloring, surface metallization, welding, electroplating, bonding, hot pressing and more.

Engineer's Pro Tips
✔ ABS is one of the most commonly used thermoplastics because it is easy to process. It is also ideal for many applications because of its dimensional stability and resistance to chemicals, corrosion, temperatures, and moisture.
✔ ABS plastics also have the benefit of being non-toxic and odorless, making them safe to use for many applications. They also have good electrical insulation properties.
✔ ABS parts are versatile: they can be assembled using glue and easily taken apart. They are also affordable, making them popular for a number of uses. Though ABS has inferior ductility and temperature resistance properties compared to PA, it is a popular and effective material for its price point.
✔ ABS is often used to produce plastic components that will undergo plating.
