ForTii® MX3
ForTii® MX3 is a high-Tg PPA (polyphthalamide) that excels in dimensional stability at elevated temperatures due to its high heat deflection temperature (HDT). ForTii® MX3 exhibits excellent fatigue performance and good chemical resistance. The material is 50% glass-reinforced and heat-stable, making it suitable for automotive applications. The processing technology for this product is injection molding.

ForTii® PA4T, Stanyl® PA46 and EcoPaXX® PA410 allow for light weight solutions (50% less weight compared to metal) and for cost effective solutions (up to 25% lower system/part costs compared to metal); ForTii® PA4T, Stanyl® PA46 and EcoPaXX® PA410 allow for reliable solutions due to good compatibility with FKM/LSR rubbers and to good creep&fatigue resistance in case of Stanyl® and to good temperature resistance up to 150-200°C in case of ForTii® and EcoPaXX®; Xytron™PPS can provide lots of benefits on creep, fatigue&oil resistance, even at elevated temperature.
