RTP LONG FIBER-REINFORCED COMPOUNDS
FOR EXCEPTIONAL STRENGTH, STIFFNESS, AND IMPACT RESISTANCE
Long-fiber reinforced thermoplastics (LFT) offer better mechanical properties than compounds with short fibers. Their high ratio of stability to weight and their very low tendency to creep produce parts that can withstand high loads across a long time, even at extreme temperatures. In comparison to metals, these compounds help to reduce manufacturing costs and increase output.
