PVC Sheet - Easy to fabricate
One of the best and most popular engineering plastics for fabrication is PVC Sheet and particularly the industrial grade. This grey sheet is excellent for heat line bending to form shapes, it is also very good for plastic welding with simple equipment and also bonding with many simple adhesives and can be solvent bonded with a PVC solvent adhesive.
PVC Sheet - Electrical insulation
PVC Sheet can be used as a very good electrical insulation sheet. PVC in various and many forms is used extensively for electrical insulation and even the insulation around electrical wiring is a form of PVC. This particular industrial grade would make a good material to use as a physical barrier to prevent contact with any potentially exposed contacts.
PVC Sheet - Fire Rating
Another important feature of PVC Sheet is it's class 1 fire rating. Although there are other plastics with a simular class of fire rating, this is the most economical and particularly combined with the fact of it's excellent fabrication and electrical insulation properties make industrial grade PVC Sheet a very popular product.
PVC Sheet - Economical
One of the key successes by PVC Sheet is the fact that it is much more economical than many other engineering plastic mateiral and would save a considerable amount of money when compared with the cost of Nylon or Acetal in the overall value of component.
PVC Sheet - Easy to Machine
PVC Sheet is easy to machine with either drills or routers etc, it will be an advantage to use TCT or other similar sharp cutters as this would provide a very smooth finish. It would also be an advantage to machine PVC Sheet at speed and feedrates that do not allow the cutter to heat up the PVC and cause it to melt which would leave a rough edge.
