ABS Solvent Cements, Cleaners & Accessories

ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) is a homogeous material with good chemical resistance and high impact strength. ABS Characteristics make it suitable for use at low temperatures (-40°C) and its ease of jointing where good preparation practice is applied

Standards - Individual products are made in accordance with the appropriate British & European (EN) Standards

Quality - We supply products manufactured under the independent ISO 9001 Quality Assurance Management standard with appropriate approvals and certification. Effast pipework products are DWI approved for potable water.
