Prime Tuff-X 200

Prime Tuff-X 200 is an engineered alloy that fills the gap between engineered plastics and high performance Polyolefins. Prime Tuff-X 200 has a very low C.L.T.E., excellent impact, UV protection and is highly chemical resistant.

Applications:
Ideal for ; automotive, power tools, irrigation, electronics, lawn and garden and RV applications.

Processing:
Prime Tuff-X 200 is a Semi-crystalline material that behaves differently in the thermoforming process when compared to an amorphous material. Ideal forming conditions; Mold temp. 170-190°F, Sheet temp. 320-360°F, part removal temp.145-170°F. Aluminum temperature controlled grit blasted tools are preferred. Ceramic tools can also work well if it is glass bead blasted. Quartz or ceramic heaters are preferred when working with Tuff-X. Calrod heaters can sometimes be used but gas fired is not recommended.

Finishing:
Tuff-X 200 can be fabricated by using many techniques such as; drilling, routing, punching, sawing, laser or die cut. Mechanical screws and other type of fasteners may be used to join Tuff-X 200 parts together. It may also be bonded with certain types of adhesives.

Please contact your Primex Plastics representative for more information on finishing, fabricating, or the thermoforming process.
