NON-RETURN VALVES
Check Ring
The check ring insures that material cannot flow
back over the screw tip upon injection.

Poppet Valve
The final type of non-return valve is called a
poppet valve.
This type of non-return valve
also seals off quicker than a check ring, and also
has a more restrictive flow path.

Hammerhead™ FR Flame Retardant Composite
Sandwich Panels are an innovative, large-format
solution for various structural applications,
including modular construction, walls, flooring,
garage doors, and industrial doors.
KEY BENEFITS
• Lightweight: Significantly lighter than
traditional materials such as wood, drywall,
and framed wall assemblies, offering a
lightweight yet durable solution for easier
transport and installation, while maintaining
structural integrity
• Durability: Resistant to rot, moisture,
chemicals, UV, and corrosion, ensuring long-
lasting performance
• Efficiency: Consolidated structural panel
reduces labor and assembly time, maintaining
structural integrity throughout the installation
process
• Versatility: Can replace gypsum and drywall
in wall construction, offering strong adhesive
bonding properties and paintable surfaces
• Material Consolidation: Integrates flame
retardant properties and eliminates the
need for additional sheets or coatings for
fireproofing, simplifying the building process
• Highly Customizable: Avient offers a wide
range of custom size configurations and panel
options, allowing builders to meet specific
project needs
• Sustainability: FR technology is not
halogenated or phosphorus-based, and is made
with benign ingredients at low concentrations,
making it an environmentally friendly option
Hammerhead™ FR Flame Retardant Composite Panels
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
APPLICATIONS
