Applications

... in automotive engineering

Ultradur® demonstrates its strengths wherever high-quality and above all heavy-duty parts are required – as is the case for example in the automotive industry. Ultradur® is rigid, impact-resistant, dimensionally stable, heatproof, weather- resistant and resistant to fuels and lubricants. These proper-ties have made Ultradur® an indispensable material in many applications in modern automotive engineering.

 

Ultradur is employed in housings and functional parts in electric drives, many other applications. Housings and mountings for various electrical and electronic components, in windscreen wiper arms, door handles, headlamp structures, mirror systems, connectors, sun-roof components, in housings for locking systems and in many other application.

 

... in electrical engineering, electronics and telecommunications

Parts, which are becoming ever smaller and more complex and offer steadily increasing functionality are typical of the high demands imposed on the materials used in electrical engineering and electronics. This is no problem for Ultradur®. It is rigid, flame-resistant, heat resistant and it exhibits good dimensional stability and outstanding long-term electrical and thermal performance.

 

Ultradur is used in plug-in connectors, connector strips, switching systems, housings for

Automatic cutouts, capacitor pots, in coil formers, lamp parts, PC fans, power supply

Components, parts for electric drives, sheathing for wave guides and many other products

and not least in vehicle electrical systems (ignition coil housing).

 

... in precision engineering and in general mechanical engineering

Long service life, perfect operation and dimensional accuracy are properties, which turn a modern component into a first-class product. Ultradur® contributes to this. It affords good surface quality and dimensional stability; high rigidity and compressive strength and it have particularly low war page.

 

Ultraduris employed in functional parts for printers, copying equipment, cameras and optical devices, gas meter housings and housings for valves, pumps and a wide variety of other applications.

 

… Other Applications

Resins for molding household appliances and equipment must be resistant to chemicals and other media, and be capable of producing a good surface finish. In addition, some types of kitchen equipment have to withstand high temperatures. This is no problem for Ultradur®.

 

Ultradur® range contains the grades to meet these requirements, including food-contact use. Ultradur’s resistance to high sustained-service temperatures makes it the material of choice when things get hot...

 

Typical Ultradur applications are exterior parts for deep fryers, waffle irons, toasters, bread baking machines, coffee machines, steam irons, cooker knobs and handles. In the personal care sector, applications include toothbrush bristles, toothpaste tub lid and many more.
