Elastocon® STK56PA-B
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
Elastocon® STK56PA-B black thermoplastic elastomer has been developed for applications that require soft rubber-like properties and a good surface finish. Elastocon® STK56PA-B is well suited for consumer goods and industrial applications requiring non-slip/soft touch ergonomics, sound and vibration dampening, improved impact resistance, and U.V. stability. Elastocon® STK56PA-B can be overmolded to nylon.Elastocon® STK56PA-B is supplied as ready to use pellets in 1000 lb. quantities.
