  • Ideal for Lead Replacement
  • Weight Manipulation and Radiation Shielding
  • Formulated with a specific gravity from 2 to 11

Lower part costs and eliminate time-consuming finishing steps with High Gravity Compounds (HGC's) from RTP Company. These materials duplicate the look and feel of metal while retaining the design advantages of injection molding.

With specific gravities ranging from 2.0 to 11.0 they are commonly used as a lead replacement material. HGC's are also ideal for cosmetics packaging, sporting goods, lawn and garden tools, bathroom fixtures, kitchen appliances, dental equipment, inertia pendulums, and sound absorbing equipment.
