In places such as swimming pools, gymnasiums, etc., plastic lockers are more favorable than steel lockers since steel lockers are easy to rust in a damp place, and this will have a certain impact on the items stored in them. So what other characteristics do plastic lockers have? Let's take a look.
Plastic lockers, compared with traditional wooden lockers and steel lockers, have many extra advantages, such as waterproofing and moisture-proofing, anti-rust, high-strength impact resistance, heat and acid resistance, DIY combination, bright colors, etc. And these advantages make them particularly suitable for swimming pools, stadiums, universities, gyms, beaches, water parks, hospitals and so on. In recent years, under the general trend of consumption upgrading, ABS plastic lockers are widely favored. Not only places with high humidity, but also classrooms where value environmental protection and safety are using ABS plastic lockers.
Plastic lockers are made of ABS or HIPS raw material, injected and molded by large injection molding machines with large steel molds. ABS plastics have excellent comprehensive properties, electrical properties, impact strength, good dimensional stability, high impact resistance, aging resistance, wear resistance, chemical resistance, dyeability. Besides, they also have good water, oil, acid and alkali resistance, and are insoluble in most alcohols and hydrocarbon solvents.
ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) material is of high strength, high wear resistance, higher durability, longer life and higher safety compared with other plastic materials. In addition, it is also known as plastic steel because the strength of ABS is close to that of steel.
ABS lockers are injection molded, and the shape of their plates is designed according to the characteristics of the plastic, with reasonably arranged reinforcing ribs, which completely solves the problem of bending and deformation of the plastic plates.
Installing ABS plastic lockers is just like building blocks, with no need of glue, or any metal screws to secure their structure and achieve the goal of no deformation and distortion, but by their mortise and tennon joints, thickened important parts and high base. The door panel and the side panel are connected by high-strength, waterproof nylon hinges and the upper and lower shafts, as well as a theft-proof latch to ensure safety. Moreover, ABS lockers can be freely assembled according to the required conditions. It is also very convenient and simple to disassemble and move them. This modular design principle can truly reduce the cost of maintenance since a partial replacement will not affect the overall use.
