Industrial Control Gear Application Data

Akulon® PA6 and ForTii® PA4T allow for reliable solutions due to good electrical and thermal endurance. Akulon® PA6 and ForTii® PA4T allow for more design freedom and/or potential system cost reductions due to part integration and thinner wall design and lower profiles possibilities, reduced cycle time with lower production losses
