Material
HDPE
Specifications:
GemStar
Transit Cases, Reusable
Shipping Containers, Rotationally
Molded, and Rugged
Rack Mount Cases are all made from High Density Polyethylene
(H.D.P.E.); which is a low-cost, high-performance plastic. The
most important characteristics of H.D.P.E. are its durability and
resiliency. H.D.P.E. has extreme chemical resistance and holds
up well with rough handling.
Summary
of Properties
LR7340:
H.D.P.E. comes in a variety of colors and textures all with the
same durable characteristics as the standard black and silver
colors. This plastic has excellent formability and chemical resistance.
GemStar extrudes this material to insure quality, consistency,
and timely delivery of raw material for your cases.
A.B.S.
Specifications:
GemStar Carry
Cases are thermoformed from Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene
(A.B.S.), which is a second generation thermoplastic that combines
outstanding strength to weight ratios with an ability to withstand
wide temperature extremes. A.B.S. solves the brittleness problems
of styrenes and gives the dimensional stability not available
with polyethylenes. Cases formed from A.B.S. have distinct advantages
over aluminum. A.B.S. is impervious to most chemicals; will not
corrode; will not dent easily; does not show scratches as aluminum,
generally keeping its "new" appearance longer; lightweight,
less than aluminum for equal strength. A.B.S. is available in
many standard colors and can be color matched to your requirements.
Summary
of Properties
R21:
Economical R21 outperforms other low-cost A.B.S. with its ideal
balance of properties
combining
excellent formability, ductility and mechanical qualities with
high impact
strength and outstanding high and low temperature performance.
R59: This unique A.B.S./P.V.C. material is fully tested and
fire rated. R59 is similar to R21 in that it also has excellent
formability, ductility and mechanical qualities with high impact
strength and low temperature performance.
