CENTROTRON GF 15 / PPS GF 15

1 of 2 products in this brand
CENTROTRON GF 15 / PPS GF 15 is reinforced with 15% glass-fibers. This leads to stiffness and increased resistance of the binding substance and an increased heat distortion resistance at the same time. The tensile strength is increased to 5.000 MPa. Among other things, bearings, sensors or exhaust pipes are manufactured from PPS GF 15 plastics.
