Review: Sturdy material that is easy to work with. Avoid heating as it is a petroleum-based material - These are great for random projects or fixing things that might need a customized piece to support it, or hold it together. The boards are usually the strength I need and easy to shape and cut. The only item I will had as a word of caution, is if you are using any kind of high-speed saw to cut it, the friction generation will heat up the plastic and release petroleum based fumes. I am a chemist so I know my chemical smells pretty well. Not sure if the fumes are toxic, but better to have a fan to redirect the fumes, or just do all the cutting outside. I use both screws and bolts to secure it to another object or to another plank. Anyway, I've been ordering these years for good reason: fabricate custom pieces for mechanical support or build something original with my kids. Highly recommend.
Review: Great texture that blends well into existing automotive interiors - This is a very high-quality quarter-inch-thick ABS sheet from a conscientious supplier. As advertised, the shiny sides are protected by a cover sheet. Also, as you can see in one of my photos, the corners of the sheets are protected by guards for shipping. After buying another brand of quarter-inch-thick ABS to add an instrument sub-panel to my Mazda, I found that textures on plates from other suppliers are wholly unsuitable for blending remotely close into pre-existing OEM automotive interiors. As seen in my other color photo, the “Other Brand” plate at right has a very coarse and directional texture that is never seen in automotive settings. Moreover, despite the texture’s coarseness, it was ridiculously shiny on both the crests and troughs of the texture. 👍 However, as you can see in the left-right comparison image, the Kaitela plate has a finer random texture with a duller sheen, making it highly suitable for add-on sub-panels in automotive instrument panels so they don’t stand out like a sore thumb. As denoted by the orange arrow in figure 4, even the finer texture of the Kaitela plates—relative to competing brands—is still noticeably coarser than Mazda dash components… and it is likely coarser than most other automotive dashes. Note the OEM textures surrounding the newly added instrument sub-panel. But Kaitela’s texture doesn’t stand out like a sore thumb. A note regarding plate thicknesses: I recently purchased ABS plates from two different suppliers on desertcart. In the case of ⅛ʺ-thick plates, I’ve found they are close to 0.125ʺ. But twice now, the “¼-inch” thicknesses have been within 0.0015 inch of 6.00 mm (0.236–0.2375ʺ vs. 0.250ʺ). This disparity isn’t worth docking any stars, particularly since the plates are advertised here with a parenthetical “(6mm),” but the plates actually appear to be “hard metric” where the inch dimension is the approximation; it’s a detail to consider for exacting applications. 👎 The only real downside is my Kaitela plates had a noticeable waviness on a 1½ʺ pitch (see the B&W photo), which is a significant downside if you expect to have the shiny side exposed. However, I wouldn’t dock the Kaitela even a half-star over this because I suspect most buyers will want the textured side facing out.

## Features

- Sized at 8 x 12 inches with 1/4 inch thick (0.236" / 6mm nominal), textured front and smooth back.
- Thermoformable ABS plastic sheet has excellent tensile strength and impact resistance, it is easier to form and flexible than acrylic sheets. Easy to cut and heat, making it an ideal material for most thermoform applications.
- Rigid thermoformed plastic plate can be used for DIY projects, handcraft, scabbard, switch panel, protective cases and covers, robotics competition, automotive dashboard, wheel covers, body parts, amp surface, and audio frame.
- Flat ABS thermoplastic sheet 1/4" thick is sufficiently stiff and can be handled with a strip heater, table saw, jigsaw, handsaw, cnc router, waterjet. Or drilling holes in them, and can be bent and molded with a heat gun.
- ABS material provides a balanced combination of mechanical toughness, wide temperature range, good dimensional stability, chemical resistance, electrical insulating properties, and ease of fabrication.
