TECHNICAL DATA
VAC-PAK® HS 8171 Bagging Film
Co-Extruded High Temperature Nylon 6 Film
DESCRIPTION
VAC-PAK® HS 8171 co-ex is a green-tinted, transparent, heat-stabilized, co-extruded film produced from a modified nylon resin. VAC PAKÒ HS 8171 co-ex is a high temperature nylon film which can be used for cures up to 400°F (205°C).
APPLICATION
VAC-PAK® HS 8171 co-ex is recommended as a bagging film for advanced composite fabrication and other high temperature / pressure applications where softness, workability, pinhole-free and defect-free films are essential. The co-extrusion process combines multiple layers of resin flow into film prior to exiting the extrusion die. This process represents the most advanced "state-of-the-art" technology in blown film production. VAC-PAK® HS 8171 co-ex can be heat seamed to meet any custom shape requirements.
