Anti-Static ABS
Anti-static ABS is a modified ABS material with conductive additives that reduce surface resistivity, preventing static buildup while maintaining the mechanical properties of standard ABS. Ideal for electronic component housings and ESD-safe tooling.
Anti-Static ABS is an engineered thermoplastic designed to provide electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection while retaining the well-known mechanical properties of standard ABS. By incorporating conductive additives, the material reduces surface resistivity, preventing static buildup that could damage sensitive electronic components. This makes Anti-Static ABS a popular choice for industries requiring both mechanical durability and electrostatic safety.
The material maintains good impact resistance, toughness, and machinability, ensuring ease of processing into complex parts while offering reliable long-term performance. It is also compatible with common fabrication techniques such as injection molding, 3D printing, and machining, making it versatile across different production methods. At GD Prototyping, we provide high-quality Anti-Static ABS materials tailored for use in electronics, cleanroom environments, and specialized tooling, ensuring precision, safety, and durability where electrostatic control is essential.
