Light weight fire-rated sheet KYDEX® T-LW is a fire-rated thermoplastic sheet that has the flammability characteristics of a PVC/PMMA alloy and features significant weight savings compared to standard KYDEX® T and is comparable to polycarbonate. KYDEX® T-LW is a light-weight alternative to heavier fire-rated thermoplastics. It meets a wide range of fire safety standards including FAR 25.853(a) vertical burn, Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 302, and UL 94 V-0. It offers a significant weight reduction compared to other PVC/PMMA alloys. Its wide processing window and ease of thermoforming makes it ideal for three-dimensional parts requiring crisp detail. Suggested Applications: - Aircraft Interiors
