Product Features

Since KYDEX® T is less hygroscopic, unlike FR-ABS, it typically does not require pre-drying, offers superior impact, more uniform forming with less wall thinning and offers significantly greater resistance to a broad range of corrosive chemicals and cleaning solutions. It is available in a wide range of aesthetic choices and is Underwriter’s Laboratories, Inc® recognized Std 94 V-0, 5V.

  • Substitute for FR-ABS sheet with competitive pricing but superior cost/performance
  • Higher breakage resistance than competitive thermoplastics as measured by the Notched Izod test
  • Available in thicknesses from 0.71mm (0.028) and up, in 8 textures, a variety of colours, blank sizes and low minimums
  • Among the most rigid of thermoforming materials with a modulus of elasticity of 2,482 MPa (360,000 psi)
  • Easy to form with excellent part definition and deep-draw characteristics
  • Form times similar to FR-ABS making it an easy transition from competitive products
