Base Materials launches new toughened epoxy tooling board material
Base Materials bolsters its industry-leading epoxy materials range with the launch of BE890.
Base Materials bolsters its industry-leading epoxy materials range with the launch of BE890, a specialist high-performance, toughened epoxy tooling board designed for use in the manufacture of advanced composite master models and patterns, direct-to-part applications for short-run productions and prototypes, thermoforming and vacuum forming.
Suitable for use across a range of industries including automotive and aerospace, the new BE890 epoxy tooling board boasts an excellent surface finish and requires only minimal sealing. In addition, it also has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, superior dimensional stability, a very fine surface structure, and creates minimal dust during machining.
Speaking about the launch of the new BE890 epoxy tooling board material, Darren Lambert, Head of Business Development at Base Materials, says: “With a long-standing reputation for engineering high-performance, high-quality tooling board materials, we are continuously investigating ways in which we can better meet the evolving needs of our customer base. Over the past 12 to 18 months, we have invested significantly in research and development to ensure that we’re perfectly placed to do exactly that.
