KYDEX® 6503

KYDEX® 6503 is an integral pearlescent product meeting all fire retardancy requirements set forth in Federal Aviation Regulations 25.853 paragraphs (a) and (d) (old (c)) including low heat release (65 / 65) in the OSU rate of heat release test. Its excellent properties make it the ideal material to form 2 and 3-dimensional aircraft components. Low heat release sheet with refined integral pearlescent effect developed to reflect and refract light.
