Sheet metal restricts design flexibility, and different automotive OEMs request different attachment configurations for the part,” Spiess explained.
So it becomes extremely time consuming to design and fabricate multiple variations in metal.”
Design flexibility = fast customization: With plastic offering greater design freedom than metal, the company can quickly develop and produce variations of the part for different customers.

They can be used in the extrusion of polyethylene or polypropylene to reduce the friction between the molten polymer and metal, enabling the polymers to be extruded without melt fracture.
These non-PFAS process aids work by migrating to the metal surface and reducing friction in the extruder and at the die.
