Molding Solution aids in automotive sensor manufacturing.

Suited for packaging of vehicle sensors, MacromeltÃ-® low-pressure molding solution is composed of polyamide hotmelt and available in various formulations. Material and process solution simultaneously encapsulates sensor's circuitry and forms outer shell of component to enable self-contained, integrated component. Available in translucent amber or black, product is resistant to fluids found...

Adhesive Film suits harsh automotive applications.

Formulated for wear- and abrasion-resistance in high-friction automotive applications, Scapa P989BK consists of 3 mil black polyethylene film, single-coated with acrylic adhesive. Pressure-sensitive, adhesive film is inert to chemicals and solvents and supplied on 64 lb lay-flat kraft release liner. Applications include pipe and harness protection, separation of dissimilar metals, anti-squeak and...

PEEK Polymers withstand lead-free soldering processes.

VICTREXÃ-® 90 PEEK products are designed for injection molding thin-walled, intricate components and highly filled compounds. They can replace thermosets, ceramics, and metals in electronic, surface-mount technology and fluid handling applications. Available unfilled or reinforced with glass or carbon fibers, VICTREX 90-based products enable molding of sections thinner than .008 in. Fiber...

Low-Ash Additive benefits stationary gas engine oils.

LubrizolÃ-® 6885A offers deposit control and thermal oxidative stability with minimal oxidation and nitration. It provides corrosion resistance and protects against cylinder and piston scuffing and valve seat wear, helping to extend engine life. Product offers universal applicability in Group I and II oils. Treat rate is 9.37% by weight.

Filter Media suits high-volume painting operations.

Suitable as primary media or 2nd stage product, Ultra Media features graduated denier fiber construction, needled back layer, and face design engineered to load liquid and solid paint overspray. Media is compatible with range of commercial and industrial paints, including high solids, solvent-based and water-based paints, and clear coats. It handles high solids and water-based paints with average...

Solder Powder/Flux allows soldering irons to be re-tinned.

MulticoreÃ-® TTC-LF consists of lead-free grade solder powder and flux, formed into shape of thick disk for cleaning and de-wetting soldering irons. Users wipe tip of iron across surface of TTC-LF to produce local melting, and then wipe on damp sponge. Suited for lead and lead-free applications, product features activators that thermally decompose into inert components, and ability to clean...

Liquid Fluxes target consumer electronics applications.

MulticoreÃ-® MF101 and MF300 are VOC-free, no-clean liquid fluxes suited for low solderability surfaces such as oxidized copper. They minimize or eliminate solder balling and are non-flammable. To complement lead-free wave soldering applications, MF200 helps eliminate micro solder balling, leaves minimal residue, and offers maximum process window. No-clean, sustained activity flux, MFR301 is...

Flexible Magnet offers magnetic strength up to 5.0 MGOe.

Offering total elongation up to 250%, Reance(TM) SF neodymium iron boron magnet holds tight radiuses without cracking, breaking, or losing magnetic properties. Unit can be produced as thin as .012 in. making it suited for use in cordless power equipment, sensors, guitar pick ups, and xerographic equipment. Reance SF may be custom-formulated to particular magnetic requirements, as well as slit,...

Compressible Urethane Foam suits handheld electronic devices.

Available in .039 in. thickness, PORONÃ-® 4790-92 Microcellular Extra Soft - Slow Rebound Foam is resistant to extreme temperatures, shock, and compression set. It is suited for filling gaps, providing seals, and protecting components from environmental hazards, as well as managing shock and vibration energy.

Foams suit business machines and transport rollers.

Durethane(TM) M mechanically mixed, microcellular foam features uniform, mostly open cell structure, while Durethane(TM) F is chemically blown, cellular foam with closed cell structure. Both prevent glazing and buildup while maintaining shape, physical characteristics, coefficient of friction, and chemical resistance. Durethane M and F can be made conductive for electrostatic dissipation for use...
