ForTii® Ace MX51

ForTii® Ace MX51 is a polyphthalamide (PPA) with unique fatigue performance and chemical resistance. Its high aromatic content and high Tg contribute to excellent part stiffness and low creep, even at temperatures up to 150 °C. Moisture uptake occurs slowly, with minimal impact on dimensions. ForTii® Ace MX51 is processed using injection molding technology and is heat stabilized. It is 30% glass-reinforced and specifically designed for automotive applications.
