The KYDEX Thermoplastics material is formulated for thermoforming applications, and we found it effective at maintaining a uniform wall thickness, confirmed by cross-section quality checks of (membrane) pressed parts. Although it's a rigid, heavy gauge sheet product, extensibility is sufficient to form a sharp 90 degree outside corner during miter-folding without heating of the sheet at the fold point.
