King High-Impact Polystyrene is a low cost and versatile plastic sheet that is easy to machine and fabricate. HIPS is often specified for low strength structural applications when impact resistance, machine-ability, and low cost are required. It is frequently used for machining pre-production prototypes since it has excellent dimensional stability and is easy to fabricate, paint and glue.
