METAL REPLACEMENT COMBINES METAL’S STRENGTH WITH PLASTIC’S LIGHT WEIGHT CASE STUDY: COMPLĒT™ LONG GLASS FIBER REINFORCED COMPOSITE Challe nge Accepted. When Avient proposed re-engineering the yoke with an alternative composite material, Bettcher was receptive, but needed evidence that a polymer solution would retain the reliable performance its customers demanded. Spurred by the need for high strength and low weight, Avient quickly identified a Complēt™ long glass fiber nylon composite as a best-fit solution.
