Evolution of tools. Power tools continue to evolve from simple and functional to innovative and stylish. Santoprene TPVs can help to enable both your original technical ideas and unique aesthetics.
It's about feel and function. Santoprene TPV bonding grades for engineered thermoplastic substrates, including nylon, have the look and feel that adds value to your product and satisfies today's demanding customer. Add ergonomic soft touch feel to the grips, triggers, buttons and knobs, and don't forget about vibration damping on saws and drills. In addition, the good compression set can seal your power tool from the environment, especially the battery connection found in today's fast-growing cordless power tool market. The good chemical and oil resistance of Santoprene TPVs will help your power tool survive the harsh work environment found in typical garages, shops and construction areas.
You decide the process. In a single processing step you can impart these features to your power tool products. Whether using two-shot processing or insert overmolding, there is a Santoprene TPV bonding grade that will meet your power tool needs.
