Why Use Thermoset Composite Material?
Here are some reasons why customers should consider using thermoset material over current material such as ferrous and non-ferrous metals, thermoplastics, or castings.
• Reduced secondary costs
• Design flexibility
• Base material cost
• Parts consolidation savings
• Potential for molded in-color
• Reduced tooling costs (life/maintenance)
• Reduced energy requirements (die casting)
• Reduced safety requirements (die casting) |
• High Stiffness
• High Strength
• Low Shrink Rate – Mold to Net Shape
• Structural Aesthetics
• Dimensional Stability
• Low Creep at Elevated Temperatures
• Dielectric Applications
• Chemical Resistance
• Longer Tool Life Compared To Die Cast
• Lower Cost Than Engineered Thermoplastic
• Lower Cost Than Die Cast Metals |
