Answered: Renamed: Use of ABS as per <R7f>

[amcurie]

We would like to use ABS on the robot. The Rule R7 F is what we are looking at. We would like to make a small ABS part for the robot.
Is this allowed? thanks

We ask you to please thoroughly read the VEX Robotics Comeptition Nothing But Net Game Manual and to please review the Q&A Usage Guidelines before posting in this forum. Specifically, please quote the rule or definition that your question is referring to.

Let’s look at <R7f>. I’ve bolded some text for emphasis:

@VEX Robotics Competition Nothing But Net Game Manual

<R7> Robots are allowed the following additional “non-VEX” components:
f. Non shattering plastic from the following list; polycarbonate, acetel monopolymer (Delrin), acetal copolymer (Acetron GP), POM (acetal), ABS, PEEK, PET, HDPE, LDPE, Nylon (all grades), Polypropylene, FEP; as cut from a single 12" x 24" sheet up to 0.070" thick.

Thus, the use of ABS is legal in the quantities listed above.
