Faztek, LLC is excited to announce the launch of metal detectable 1/8” ABS plastic. This material is intended to be used when guarding light duty hazard locations in the food or pharmaceutical industries where an all metal guard would traditionally be required. Following the current industry practice of using a highly visual material, guards in this material are available in blue only.
Metal detectable plastic has previously been exclusively available for injection molded parts. This is the first time that a metal detectable thermoformable material has been available. Use of this material over traditional stainless steel also provides a significant weight savings when the guard is removed for maintenance purposes. Plastic guards also deaden sound and never rust.
