McHENRY, Ill. – PolyOne GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers today announced the launch of an overmolding technology based on Versaflex™ VDT thermoplastic elastomer (TPEs), developed for vibration and impact damping applications. Additionally, the PolyOne GLS material is more cost-effective than self-adhesive vibration damping tapes and avoids secondary operations.   Versaflex VDT TPE for overmolding is available in 40 - 60 Shore A hardness levels, and is opaque and colorable.

New PolyOne TPE for Nylon Grips Improves Oil and Abrasion Resistance This new GLS™ Versaflex™ OM TPE material bonds tightly to nylon substrates to deliver a soft, yet resilient grip for safety, ergonomics and comfort. Many products, from industrial tools to suitcases, use nylon grips that benefit greatly from the tactile qualities of overmolded TPEs,” said Charles Page, director of global marketing, PolyOne GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers.
