Description / Abstract: Material Description.

This standard covers the properties of glass fiber reinforced, heat stabilized, high temperature capable polyamides which are used in injected molded components.

Symbols.

The material abbreviations according to ISO 11469 are shown in Table 1 through Table 3.

Applicability.

Typical applications include the following: Engine covers, turbo system components, and other applications where temperature resistance is desired.

Remarks. The classification into types is according to the different ranges of glass fiber content within different temperature usage ranges. Additional glass and temperature ranges will be added as necessary.

T1: Continuous use temperature, +180 °C

T2: Continuous use temperature, +200 °C

T3: Continuous use temperature, +220 °C
