High-temperature core materials
Spheretex presented its new high-temperature core material in three grades: SBC HT, S HT and tex HT.
Spheretex (Hilden, Germany) presented its new high-temperature core material in three grades: SBC HT, S HT and tex HT. Designed with higher temperature resistance (150°C/302°F on a long-term basis) during the production process, the new HT cores are compatible with all resin types, particularly epoxy and polyester foam, and reportedly offer greater compressive strength than competing products.
