One of the four [[armour types]] in Robot Arena 2. The others are [[aluminum]], [[titanium]] & [[steel]]. Generally the weakest of the 4 and is the lightest available [[armor type]] available in the [[stock]] and [[DSL]] versions of Robot Arena 2 respectively (Most of the other [[mods]] are solely based on the stock version, this rule applies to those mods as well).

Commonly used on [[Lightweights]] due to the weight restriction, especially on spinners.

Plastic Armor is usually the lightest armor available without any known cheats or glitches ([[DSA]] for example). This means that it is most useful for building bots that must be light in favor of its [[weight class]] requirements, like [[AW]]s, [[BW]]s, and some [[LW]]s.

Plastic Armor is also the weakest form of armor, so it is an extremely bad choice for heavier built robots like [[MW]]s, [[HW]]s, and [[SHW]]s, or bots that have large chassis.

However, it's sometimes used on [[Middleweights]], if the bot really needs the weight due to a big & heavy weapon.

Comes in four different types as all DSL armours, Plastic 1, Plastic 3, Plastic 5 & Plastic 10.

Comes in four different thicknesses as all DSL armours, Plastic 1, Plastic 3, Plastic 5 & Plastic 10, giving more variety to the armor type.
    
Plastic 1 armour is the weakest armour in DSL (besides [[DSA]]), is rarely used by advanced builders. This being said, [[Mako]], a very successful robot, used Plastic 1.
