Foglamps Application Data

Arnite® XL-T allows for 40-50% lighter weight solutions versus metal; Arnite® XL allows for reliable solutions due to its good thermoconductivity (20 C lower surface temperatures than with standard grades) its very low outgassing behavior ensuring good long term road visibility, its high dimensional stability (as compared to PA) resulting in less beam vibration (enabling switch to LED/Xenon and AFL/DBL); Arnite® XL-T allows for cost effective solutions as compared with PPS and PPA
