 the company. This provider of off-the-shelf and custom thermoplastic elastomer compounds is said to offer a broad range of overmold and coextrusiongrade TPEs with a durometer A hardness range from as low as 20 to as high as 90. These grades also are said to offer exceptional tensile strength, tear strength and durability compared to competitive products at an equivalent durometer. The materials can offer a matte surface, as well. They are being marketed under the tradename Softlink 900 Series TPEs. This line of soft touch TPE alloys is said to expand potential product applications where they were once limited by durometer A hardness range offerings. The compounds are off-white and are said to be easy to color. (TPE Solutions)
