Are current metal parts plagued with performance problems, such as corrosion?
Plastics inherently resist corrosion, eliminating concerns about rust and other forms of oxidation that can compromise metal components.
3.
They are also up to 100 times more fatigue-resistant than polymers reinforced with short fibers, offering a high degree of mechanical resistance to high loads.

The Syncure™ XLPE portfolio is a two-step, silane-
grafted, moisture cross-linkable polyethylene system.
These materials allow for two distinct advantages
over regular polyethylene: greatly improved heat
resistance and oil resistance.
FEATURES
• Ambient curing
• Flame performance
• Resistant to heat, oil, creep and abrasion
• Low temperature properties
• Temperature ratings up to 125°C
• Low capital investment
• High extrusion speeds
