Class I/A rated thermoplastic sheet
Introduction
KYDEX® 160 thermoplastic sheet is used for laminating and thermoforming applications requiring a Class I/A rating.
General
Information
Unlike many other thermoplastics KYDEX® 160 is less hygroscopic and frequently does not require pre-drying. It meets Class I/A building code ratings up to 3.18mm (0.125”) and is UL listed up to 2.03mm (0.080”).
Suggested
Applications
- Clean Room Walls and Ceilings
- Miscellaneous Applications
- Protective Wall Covering Systems
Features
- Available in six thicknesses from 0.71mm (0.028”) to 3.18mm (0.125”), nine textures, a variety of colours, custom colour matching, custom blank sizes, and low minimums
- More resistant to a wider range of concentrated chemicals, allowing the use of stronger cleaning agents with no discolouration or surface damage
- Good formability and extensibility
- Easy to work with once formed
