Description

Securlon® L-500Y vacuum bag is a wide multi-layer extruded film providing multiple layers of safety. These layers reduce the concerns for "pinholes", weak spots, brittleness and inconsistency in films. It is strong, has a high elongation and is suitable for cure temperature up to 171°C (340°F). Securlon® L-500Y is not recommended for autoclave applications.

Benefits

• Wide films save time and money spent seaming film for large parts.
• Wider films reduce risk of scrap parts due to leakage at seams.
• Reduce scrap risk due to vacuum loss with multi-layered vacuum security.

Technical data

		Test method
Material type	Nylon, multi-layer
Elongation at break	380 %	ASTM D 882
Tensile strength	40 MPa (5800 psi)	ASTM D 882
Maximum use temperature	171°C (340°F)
Flammability (self extinguishing)	No	ATP-5034
Materials to avoid	Phenolic resins/Strong oxidizers

Storage	Recommended Storage temperature is 5°C to 40°C (41°F to 104°F)at no less than 25% relative humidity. Store indoors in original packaging, do not stack rolls on end.
Usage	Optimal usage conditions are in a Relative Humidity range from 50% to 60%rh. Nylon based vacuum bag films are sensitive to humidity, remaining soft at higher %rh and at risk of become stiffer in low %rh, see "Hydrate bagging films" TDS.
