We saw an untapped market opportunity for improved seat fastening solutions and recognized that continuing to use bent steel plate would hold us back,” said Hagen Spiess, Senior Design Engineer at HellermannTyton. HellermannTyton designers believed that engineered thermoplastics were the answer. THE SOLUTION Avient recommended Bergamid™ B70 G30H black TM-X PA 6 resin with 30 percent glass fiber reinforcement for its excellent mechanical properties and cost benefits.
