Product Description
Medium-viscosity, heat-stabilized, glass fiber-reinforced, compound based on Nylon 12

VESTAMID L-GF50 is a 50% glass fiberreinforced, easily demoldable and heatstabilized polyamide 12 compound.

Due to its mold release properties, VESTAMID L-GF50 is suitable for the efficient production of injection molded parts with short cycle times.

Further advantages of VESTAMID L-GF50 are the characteristic properties of polyamide 12 as low water absorption, good dimensional stability and almost the same properties at changing ambient humidity.
