Part presentation

Made of TPE 70 Shore A and with PP, this Multi-material Graden Hose Connection has been manufactured on pam o2.

It is made of two materials:
- A PP for the mechanical function (rigidity and threading)
- A TPE for the sealing function.

The TPE has an improved adhesion with the PP to produce a 100% functional part.

It demonstrates Pam capacity to combine different materials for advanced properties by using the right material at the right area with a focus on functionality.
