Description
Material Notes:
Torlon 4203L is an unreinforced, lubricated, pigmented grade of polyamide-imide (PAI) resin. It has the best impact resistance and greatest elongation of all the Torlon grades. Torlon PAI has the highest strength and stiffness of any thermoplastic up to 275°C (525°F). It has outstanding resistance to wear, creep, and chemicals. Torlon 4203L resin offers outstanding electrical properties, which makes it ideal for high performance parts such as connectors, switches and relays. In addition Torlon 4203L polyamide-imide can be used in applications such as thrust washers, spline liners, valve seats, bushings, bearings, wear rings, cams and other applications requiring strength at high temperature and resistance to wear. – High Flow: Torlon 4203L-HF – Low Flow: Torlon 4203L-LFInformation provided by Solvay Specialty Polymers.
