Kydex® 130 Decorative Thermoplastic Sheet – A new dimension to thermoplastic sheet is now available. Kydex 130 Granites Series offers a look which is unique to most thermoplastic materials. This decorative product performs equally well as a flat sheet or as a 3-dimensional thermoformed part. It is available in 5 colors: green, black, navy, red/black, and rosetone. It is Underwriter’s Laboratories Inc. recognized UL 94 V-0 and 5V in all gauges and UL Classified Class I/A for non-wallcovering building product applications.

SUGGESTED USES
• Appliances
• Laminations
• Electronics
• In-Store Displays
• Medical Devices
• Equipment Housings
• Dental Equipment

FEATURES

SUPERIOR FORMABILITY – For deep or hard to form parts or where good finished detail is required, Kydex 130 is unsurpassed.
RIGIDITY – Kydex 130 is more rigid than most other thermoplastics resulting in parts that are stiffer and that will deform less when loaded.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE – Kydex meets the highest standards for chemical resistance.
FIRE RETARDANCY – Kydex 130 is recognized by Underwriter’s Laboratories for Std 94 V-0 and 5V in all gauges. It meets FAR 25.853(a) vertical burn requirements for use in aircraft as thermoformed parts. For building products its Surface Burning Characteristics meets Class I/A requirements

FABRICATION
Kydex 130 is easy to fabricate and thermoform and since the color is integral throughout the sheet you don’t have to worry about the cap thinning out or the substrate bleeding through.
