MATERIAL OVERVIEW
Properties to guide your selection.
Glass-fibre reinforcement adds rigidity and thermal performance to polypropylene. This formulation can be considered for structural components that need a stiffer alternative to unfilled PP.
Selection considerations
Confirm the loading and grade-specific properties.
