INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Proper installation of composite springs from Avient is
essential to achieve optimal performance and maximum
service life.
Exposure to finishing operations: One time exposure to
elevated temperatures of up to 400°F (204°C) for 15 to 20
minutes, typical for the application of coatings, have no
effect on the performance of the composite springs.
