To start the transition from metal to plastic to streamline part weight, it’s important to define your objectives by asking the following questions:
The advanced polymer technology behind LFT allows thermoplastics to retain their strength and stiffness from sub-freezing temperatures up to nearly 400° F (200° C).
The typical densities of these specialty plastics vary from 1.65 to 1.75 g/cm3, which is 30 to 40 percent less than aluminum, bringing a high-performance alternative to the table at a fraction of the weight.

Sustainable raw materials typically derive from sources that are bio-based or recycled.
Bio-based raw materials are commonly derived from renewable plant sources such as corn, wheat, straw, sugarcane, and food and agricultural waste.
PIR content is derived from scrap reclaimed within the manufacturing process via skimmers and sieves.

Typically, the required or achieved injection pressures are from 200 - 600 psi.
SEBS formulations release from cool surfaces more easily than hot surfaces.
Overmolded parts will take longer to cool because the TPE is only cooled from one side as the plastic substrate has poor thermal conductivity.

Adding surface texture can make harder grade TPEs feel softer to the touch, so your product can benefit from both qualities.
Unlike LSR, they can be easily recycled and reprocessed, virtually eliminating waste from the manufacturing stream.
The chart below contains products that benefit from both LSR and TPE materials.
