THERMOLAST® R - RC/AD/PA/AP Series yields flexibility and strong adhesion
The series features a hardness range of 40-90 Shore A, as well as an optimal balance of flexibility and durability. 
It bonds exceptionally well with polyamide (PA) materials, especially PA6 and PA6.6 resins, achieving a strong, reliable adhesion. It is particularly well-suited for over-molded housings, providing excellent adhesion to PA materials.
This improves product functionality, stability, and long-term performance across various applications.

Sustainability and Performance
With a content of over 50% post-consumer recycled (PCR) and post-industrial recycled (PIR) materials, the THERMOLAST® R RC/AD/PA/AP Series raises the bar for sustainability while rendering high performance and reliability. 
A selection of specific recycled raw materials can be used, reducing environmental impact while maintaining product quality.

Advanced Functionality and Design 
The THERMOLAST® R RC/AD/PA/AP Series delivers a non-sticky surface for excellent grip and comfort in hand and power tool applications, while improving usability.
The series is available in black color, with optional pre-coloring to suit specific design and aesthetic preferences.
