Using a variety of metallic fibers and particles, these compounds have densities similar to traditional metals, while offering design and processing flexibility because of the polymer matrix, which can be extruded, molded, calendered, or thermoformed into the final desired shape. Reactive Reactive materials are commonly made from, and are used to bond thermoset materials. For most plastic materials, the runner size will be dependent upon the flow characteristics of the material.

Parts with internal undercuts (e.g. bulb-shaped parts) may be air ejected from the core by use of a poppet valve in the core. Parts shaped like a handle grip may warp toward the gate side of the part. Dry material.

Achieve complex designs without expensive tooling – Gravi-Tech material can be injection molded into unique part shapes utilizing lower cost molds made of P20 or H13 steel. Reactive Reactive materials are commonly made from, and are used to bond thermoset materials. For most plastic materials, the runner size will be dependent upon the flow characteristics of the material.
