Details

Stanyl® PA46, ForTii® PA4T, EcoPaXX® PA410, Akulon® PA66, Akulon® PA6, Arnite® PBT are ideal for automotive connectors due to their high temperature resistance, high mechanical property levels, and good electrical insulation properties. Stanyl® PA46 offers flowability that enables thinner wall designs. With a melting point of 325° C, ForTii® PA4T performs well at high peak temperatures. EcoPaXX® PA410 balances benefits of typical short and long chain polyamides, such as low moisture uptake and high mechanical performance. Akulon® PA6 is a thermoplastic with high heat resistant properties making it a superior choice over metal. Arnite® T PBT is a high-performing engineering plastic combining strength and rigidity with excellent processing characteristics.
