GLS Corp.'s new, easy-flowing thermoplastic elastomer series is suited for molding long, thin-flow parts for power tools, lawn and garden products, kitchen tools and sports equipment.Versaflex 9500 boasts good surface appearance, with a smooth, matte finish and minimal surface defects, according to the McHenry, Ill., company.
Users can save money because the series does not require drying and requires less color concentrate for white and pastel colors than with conventional alternatives, GLS said.
The TPE series has a wide processing window and overmolds well to polypropylene, GLS said. Products in the series are sold in natural and black pellets with Shore A hardness grades of 45, 55 and 70.
