High impact resistance
Good toughness and rigidity
Excellent dimensional stability
Good electrical insulation
Resistance to abrasion and chemicals
Industrial machinery housings and brackets
Fluid control valves and fittings
Electronic device enclosures and protective cases
ABS offers several unique properties that make it an excellent choice for threaded components in valves and fittings:
Excellent Dimensional Stability
ABS maintains tight tolerances during and after machining, which is critical for threaded connections that must fit precisely and seal effectively.
Good Impact and Chemical Resistance
This makes ABS components durable in demanding industrial environments where fittings and valves may be exposed to mechanical stress or mild chemicals.
Smooth Surface Finish
Our CNC processes deliver clean, burr-free thread profiles with consistent surface finishes—ideal for sealing surfaces or O-ring interfaces.
Cost-Effective Alternative to Metals
ABS machined parts are typically lighter and more affordable than metal alternatives, especially in short production runs or prototyping scenarios.
We utilize state-of-the-art CNC lathes and turning centers capable of producing both internal and external threads on ABS parts. Threading options include:
Metric and Imperial Threads
Custom sizes and standard profiles such as BSP, NPT, UNC/UNF, and ISO threads.
Single or Multi-Start Threads
For quick engagement and specialized flow control applications.
Threaded Inserts and Post-Machining Assembly
We offer integration of metal inserts or sealing features for added durability or compatibility with other system components.
ABS machined parts with threads are widely used in:
Water and Air Control Systems
Lightweight and corrosion-resistant parts for regulating flow in residential, commercial, or industrial systems.
Custom Connectors and Couplings
Ideal for low-pressure applications where plastic components can replace heavier or costlier metal fittings.
Prototype Valve Bodies and Enclosures
Fast turnaround on custom designs for testing and pre-production runs.
