    Compare over 25 types of plastic to find the right material for you.

    Chemical-Resistant PVC 90° Angles

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Chemical-Resistant PVC 90° Angles.
    Because these PVC Type 1 90° angles stand up to acids and alkalies, they’re often used to fabricate frames, tracks, and supports in chemical-processing applications. This material is easy to thermoform, plus it is an excellent electrical insulator.

    Ultra-Impact-Resistant PVC 90° Angles

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Ultra-Impact-Resistant PVC 90° Angles.
    Made of PVC Type 2 plastic, these 90° angles resist impact and chemicals. More impact resistant than PVC Type 1, PVC Type 2 is commonly used where protection from bumps and strikes is needed. It’s also more impact resistant than silicone, although not as resistant to heat. Since it stands up to acids and alkalies, it’s often used to make parts for chemical processing applications.

    Protect walls and other surfaces from impact. All are nonmarking.
    Screw In—These guards have mounting holes and attach with fasteners.
    Hardness Rating—The harder the surface guard, the better it stands up to impact and abrasion over long periods. The softer the guard, the more cushioning it provides to protect the surface and the object that makes contact.
