Cyclics Formlite is a thermoplastic syntactic foam plug assist material, designed specifically for the thermoforming industry. Unlike alternative plug assist materials, Formlite is manufactured
using advanced engineering CBT and high-quality glass microspheres. Formlite provides low thermal conductivity, excellent thermal stability, and superior properties required to achieve fine
details in the formed part.
Cyclics developed Formlite to meet the demands for a high temperature plug assist material that machines freely to a superior quality surface. The unique formulation provides virtually dust-free
machining while giving the user extended durability, lower heat up times, greater throughput, and clearer parts.
Features:
- High heat distortion temperature
Applications:
Formlite syntactic foam can be used to form a variety of polymer sheet materials, including in-line and sheet-feed systems and is widely used in the food, medical and packaging industries to form a wide variety of components. Formlite works exceptionally well with polyolefin, polypropylene, APET, and CPET.
