Because of different polymer and gas viscosities, moldings for gas assist need to meet specific design criteria.
Therefore suitable products have been distinguished in 4 groups of differing designs:
Rod shaped moldingsPanel shaped moldingsPanel shaped moldings with increased wall sectionsProblem moldings.
