S-Plastics Lexan FL900S resin isan ideal choice for structural components where load bearing capability at elevated
temperature is a key requirement. It exhibits outstanding inpact strength, high heat resistance, flexural characteristics, creep resistanceand processa- bility. In addition, it is an excellent alternative to metal for large components with broad application potential in theappliance, automotive, telecommunications, material, handling and business machine industries. The material contains 5% glass fiber andcombines regidity, impact strength and toughness with UL 94 V-0 and 5V listings.
