Properties
Tough, light, non-splintering & excellent machinability. Can be machined to very
smooth surface & punched under proper conditions. High impact strength & is
sufficiently hard to resist edge denting in use.
Applications
Developed for use as textile bobbin, spool heads, armored shuttle & pattern. |
