Based on earlier successful projects, the OEM design team turned to Avient for a selection of suitable thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs). For the mouse feet, Avient formulated a special grade of LubriOne™ filled acetal as an improvement over the neat acetal found in traditional designs. Together, the manufacturer and Avient settled on a final formulation that could utilize existing tooling, thereby avoiding additional costs.

The garden equipment company paired up with Avient to determine a suitable TPE for this application. Avient recommended an OnFlex™-S multicomponent TPE, which offers excellent adhesion to ABS and can be molded at lower temperatures and injection pressures than competitive products. Lower system costs = higher margins: By reducing waste from part deformation, the Avient TPE allowed the manufacturer to leverage efficient, fast 2K molding for system cost reduction.
