0° Parallel with the longitudinal fibres of the profile.

90° Perpendicular to the longitudinal fibres of the profile.
O Direction independent.
A special polyester is used for temperatures of 150º to 180º C.

Electromagnetic transparency
Electromagnetic transparency is an important property that is utilized in numerous ways to avoid reflection of electromagnetic waves.

No sparks
Because it contains no metal, the material prevents sparks – an extremely important property when used in proximity to gasses and flammable liquids.
