| KYDEX® 6565HI is a proprietary, high performance thermoplastic sheet with integral color specifically engineered to improve aircraft passenger safety. KYDEX® 6565HI was designed to provide material deformation when used in components subjected to the HIC Test (Head Injury Criterion) for increased passenger safety. It meets flammability and smoke development requirements outlined in Federal Aviation Regulations FAR 25.853 paragraphs (a) and (d). Suggested Application: - Seat parts
- Bulkhead laminates
- Life vest shrouds
- Passenger service units
- Monitor shrouds
- Armrests
- Molding strips
- Tray tables
- Kick panels
Features: - Improved impact properties over traditional thermoplastics for HIC compliance seating requirements
- Reduces cost of compliance by decreasing the total number of expensive and time consuming 16g tests required
- Increases design freedom to create more complex seat geometries
- Decreases weight by eliminating the need for heavy reinforcements or thick gauges
- Meets the stringent requirements of FAR 25.853 paragraphs (a) and (d) in all thicknesses and colors
- Excellent formability and fabrication characteristics
- Processes similar to KYDEX® 6565
- Allows for tight tolerance control
- Available in a wide range of integral colors
