[cover shot]
  • Designed to chemically adhere to rigid substrates
  • Compatible with insert and multi-shot molding
  • Diverse combinations of elastomeric and rigid materials yield excellent peel strength

RTP Company's bondable thermoplastic elastomer compounds are formulated to provide a superior chemical bond to rigid substrates, making possible simpler part designs that are less dependent on mechanical interlocks or require time consuming surface preparation during production.

These compounds are fully compatible with insert or multi-shot molding methods and are ideal for applications where a "soft-touch" features can provide an ergonomic grip, enhance consumer appeal, dampen sound or vibration, or provide impact protection.
