Characteristics

  • High tempHeat deflection temperature of 100 °C or more — keeps its shape in hot environments.
  • Chemical resistantRated "Good" against at least four of the five chemical groups tested, or described as chemical resistant on the datasheet.

Certifications

  • UL 94 V-0Flammability rating from the UL 94 test. V-0 is the highest common rating: the flame goes out within 10 seconds with no burning drips.
  • UL 746C (f1)UL 746C outdoor suitability rating — f1 means the material keeps its properties after UV and water exposure tests.

As stated by 3DXTECH. Ask us for the certificate if you need it for an audit.
