Automotive Lamp Bases: durability for life of vehicle

Stanyl® meets vehicle life time durability requirements of more than 800,000km for signal lamp bases at 200°C. Its unique combination of properties delivers:

•  precise positioning of the lamp within the reflector at all times
 -  high stiffness and strength maintained even at 200°C
 -  high creep resistance: minimum specified clamp force holds lamp in position over life of vehicle
•  high speed production compatibility
 -  tough material, withstands high speed assembly techniques without parts breakage
 -  reduces lost production and gives higher production capabilities (cpk)
