HOW STAT-TECH MATERIAL MAKES THE DIFFERENCE IN AUTOMOTIVE
ADAS SENSORS, CAMERAS AND ECUS
Protection from static buildup – Stat-Tech
material reduces static buildup with surface
resistivity between 1.0E+2 ohms and 1.0E+6 ohms,
minimizing sparks from damaging nearby electrical
components, especially those near fuel storage.

We have helped
customers develop parts that are:
• Wear-resistant: End products such as
bearings and sleeves that do not
require lubrication
• Conductive: Electrical and/or thermal
conductivity, in molded and extruded parts
• X-Ray opaque: Used for medical and dental
devices.
