Materials are rated on a scale of recommended to limited use based upon their performance in resisting corrosion. While strength and corrosion resistance may be primary considerations, other factors such as impact resistance and ease of modification may also factor into a selection. The basic material comparisons chart will further help you select the best non-metallic enclosure material for your application.
