ForTii® Ace WX53-FC

Name: ForTii® Ace WX53-FC
Brand: ForTii®

ForTii® Ace WX53-FC is a high-temperature polyamide with halogen-free and halogen-containing flame retardant grades. It is designed for demanding applications in the electronics, lighting, automotive, white goods, industrial, and aerospace industries. It exhibits best-in-class high-temperature and wet mechanical performance, weldline strength, and weldline strength retention in hot water and steam. ForTii® Ace WX53-FC is a PPA with a high glass transition temperature and extreme chemical resistance, making it suitable for applications requiring high mechanical strength at elevated temperatures. It is processed using injection molding technology and features a USP class VI classification, making it suitable for drinking water contact.

Pump Housings Application Data: Akulon® (UltraFlow) PA6 allows for reliable solutions due to its good mechanical properties (stiffness and toughness), its better surface appearance in comparison with PA66; Akulon® UltraFlow PA6 allows for even more cost effective solutions, since it enables faster molding in comparison with standard PA6 and enables thinner wall designs; EcoPaXX® Q-DWX10 is suitable for hot water contact, shows excellent hydrolysis resistance and does not crack in the pressure test at -1°C. EcoPaXX® Q-DWX10 is a cost effective, reliable solution and is partially biobased.; ForTii® Ace WX53-FC is suitable for hot water contact, shows excellent hydrolysis resistance of the weldline strength and has great surface appearance. ForTii® Ace WX53-FC is suitable for industrial pumps and valves in for water and food contact applications operating at temperatures up to 130°C.
Plastics and Elastomers Functions: Resin
Faucet Mixing Valve Application Data: EcoPaXX® PA410 allows for reliable solutions due to its superior toughness, its improved bonding strength, its high hydrolytic stability (NSF61 is hot water certified) and its excellent dimensional stability. EcoPaXX® PA410 leads to sustainable solutions since it is partly bio-based
Plastics and Elastomers Processing Methods: Injection Molding
