“My clear choice.”
For Titan Gilroy and his team, our Synergy 735
is the best coolant they‘ve ever used. It ensures
spotless surfaces even with sensitive aluminum
alloys, is easy to clean and allows for a clear view
of the machining process. In addition, it is gentle
to the skin and neutral in smell.
Test us. It‘s worth it.

construction, architectural
materials, manufacturing and
food and beverage processing,
packaging and distribution, says
Mr Green, Managing Director of
Cut To Size Plastics. Mr Green has
more than 40 years’ experience in
engineering safely and protective
solutions throughout the Asia-
Pacific, representing some of
the world’s leading brands of
engineering plastics.
One of the future-focussed
materials from his company’s
global ranges of engineering
plastics is Wearguard
polycarbonate, which is
outstanding for its impact
resistance (IZOD impact tested to
90 KGfcm/cm) and for its shock
load resistance, which is many
times that of acrylic clear sheet,
for example.
"WEARGUARD
IS VIRTUALLY
UNBREAKABLE,
EVEN WHERE
EXPOSED TO
ROBUST INTERIOR
INDUSTRIAL
ENVIRONMENTS"
These properties make it ideal
for see-through safety and
indoor and outdoor glazing and
protective applications which until
recent years required the use of
metal or similar material, says Mr
Green.
Wearguard is virtually
unbreakable, even where exposed
to robust interior industrial
environments, or to exterior
security or protective challenges
where it may be required to resist
rough weather and vandalism.
Applications include:
• Viewing and protective panels
and machine guards for safety in
industry
• Cabin panels on heavy
machinery and materials
handling machinery, including
forklift side screens
• Acoustic panels on expressways
• Anti-vandal glazing, security
glazing, skylights, sign faces
• Shatterproof boat and marine
environment windows
• Electrical guards and covers,
meter covers, light covers,
terminal blocks
• Sight glass tubes for
observation of industrial and
process liquid levels
Wearguard consistently
displays high transparency –
commensurate with thicknesses
used – and also offers high heat
resistance, with a melting point
of 150 degrees Celsius. The
material is not influenced by
sudden changes in temperature
and humidity, which makes it ideal
for applications such as skylights,
sign faces and institutional
vandal-resistant glazing. It offers
excellent dimensional stability and
is readily machined by cutting,
drilling or bending.
Cut To Size has expanded its
capacity to custom-fabricate
Wearguard safety and glazing
products with its new Morbidelli
Author M100F heavy duty CNC
router and machining centre.
The new high-speed, vibrationfree
Italian technology offers
unmatched finishing quality and
rapid production turnaround
for the company’s Asia-Pacific
markets, says Mr Green. It can
cost-efficiently produce complex
components and shapes required
for expanding interior and exterior
applications. The machinery’s
rapid working cycle times and
reduction of idle times also
enhance Cut To Size’s ability
to cost-effectively supply high
precision components from
its broader ranges of versatile
engineering plastics, including
Nylon, Acetal, Teflon, UHMWPE,
HDPE, PVC and Polypropylene.
Protective transparent
safety screening responds
to changes in production,
processing and packaging as
Industry 4.0 advances
