TECATOR™

TECATOR™ is a high performance melt processable polyamideimide that maintains its excellent mechanical and wear properties in temperature environments exceeding 500°F. Stock shapes from Modern Plastics are available in three grades: TECATOR™ TI5013 High strength structural grade featuring good electrical properties and strength, making it ideal for demanding applications at a broad range of temperatures. TECATOR™ TI5031 offers high PV capabilities in bearing applications, primarily at high loads and low speeds. TECATOR™ GF30 (XP142T) is a 30% glass filled grade, compression molded with superior stiffness and dimensional stability. It is available in a wide variety of custom tube, ring, rod and plate sizes.
