As per our Shipping and Returns Policy, custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-returnable. If you need an over- or undersized item, note it under \"Comments\" during Checkout. Cut-to-size orders have an acceptable cut tolerance of 1/8" (0.125"), so clarify if the adjustment is to be made on the (+) or (-) side of the saw blade. Please review our full return and shipping policy here.
Measure Twice, Cut OnceSince custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-refundable, be very careful while measuring your dimensions. As each cut is nominal, even the slightest miscalculation could be costly.
How to Use a Measuring TapeExtend your tape measure several inches to find the 1 and 2 inch markers. In between the inch markers you’ll find 16 equally spaced tick marks.
Measure by counting the increments beyond the nearest inch. As the increments decrease, so does the length of the mark. For example, 1/2\" has a bigger mark than 1/4\" which has a bigger mark than 1/8\". The smallest mark follows at 1/16\". Please be aware that some measuring tapes may have even smaller increments.
Features of a Measuring Tape: Sliding End HookThe sliding end hook is designed for two different types of measurements. An outside measurement (where the hook of the tape hangs over an edge), requires the hook to slide out a bit to account for the thickness of the material. When making an inside measurement (where the hook will push up against a surface), the clip slides in, again, accounting for its thickness. The measuring tape self-adjusts to guarantee an accurate measurement (as far as the tape is concerned).
This sample pack includes a 6x6" sample of ABS, Noryl, Polycarbonate, and UHMW. The Impact Strength Resistance Pack features four high impact performance plastics. Impact strength describes a plastic's behavior under impact and relates to how resistant from breaking and cracking a material is, when experiencing a sharp, fast, blunt, and/or hard impact. A high impact resistance is important in many functional, moving and safety parts to ensure fracture behavior will not occur under extreme everyday operational conditions where the material is being used. Under impact stress, the mechanical energy absorbed by the plastic is transferred from the hard, stiff crystallites into the soft amorphous regions. If their energy absorption capacity is not enough, brittle fracture occurs. Brittle fracture can be prevented by incorporating impact modifiers, such as elastomers, which are blended into the base material. Under impact stress, the elastomeric regions will absorb additional energy and prevent fracture. The correct impact resistant plastic for your project will vary based on many factors (temperature, humidity, interacting materials, etc.), and there is no material that will outperform any other for all applications.
