The local reinforcement of the thermoplastic compression molding compound allows that the cover undergoes no deformation or failure in the hot environment of the rear muffler. The composite improves the strength and impact resistance of the component in freezing temperatures.
| advantages | Resistant to low temperatures
Very rigid at high temperatures in the environment of the rear muffler Improved strength and impact resistance |
| material | Compound: Direct long fiber thermoplastic (DLFT) made of Polypropylene with long glass fibers
Insert as surface layer: Tepex dynalite 104-RG601 (composite sheet, continuous glass fiber reinforcement, PP matrix) |
| process | Compression molding |
