THE IMPACT Avient’s solution was a unique, nylon-based material that met the all of the application’s performance requirements. After evaluating and approving the material’s physical properties, the manufacturer also requested that it was formulated to be flame-retardant. Testing by the manufacturer of the material produced in Asia showed that it per formed identically to that made in the United States.

Tested against commonly used wet grip materials, the Versaflex XP 2850 material demonstrated exceptional wet kinetic COF performance— showing more than a 100% improvement over the competition—and better dry COF performance as well. In addition to enhanced tackiness, this specialty material offers excellent abrasion and UV resistance, plus a skin-safe, non-abrasive finish.
