Specialized MaterialWe offer a variety of
specialized products including, but not limited to, Legetolex and Nitohard®.
Legetolex
Legetolex is a lightweight damping material used for
reducing vibration. This material is manufactured with a butyl adhesive layer that is
suitable for most applications It is so lightweight that it can float on water. This
material offers stable damping characteristics over a wide range of temperature. Legetolex
is fabricated with an adhesive layer so that no other adhesive is required for
application.
Common applications for Legetolex:
- Vibration damping in electrical appliances
- Automated office equipment
- Soundproofing in automobiles and commercial vehicles
Nitohard®
Nitohard is a foamed epoxy resin reinforcing/damping
material that is lightweight and very strong. Its unique structure enhances the
characteristics of vibration damping, thermal insulation and soundproofing. The foam cures
from two to three times its original thickness on a paint drying line. The use of Nitohard
allows for the reinforcements of automobile body panels while reducing their weight.
Common applications for Nitohard:
- Reinforcing steel body panels for automobiles, rail cars,
containers, etc.
- Vibration damping and structural reinforcement of household
appliances.
- Thickness reduction of steel panels where weight is a
concern.
- Thermal insulation
