Terlux question

[raystowntool]

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with Terlux. I was asked what the best hot tip
design is to use with this material. It is hard to find any info for this. Thanks.

I've ran their clear abs years ago for a pay phone coin chute. It ran well and didn't seem to be too shear sensitive. Now for the bad news: that was a cold runner mold. So I've never shot any from a hot runner.

We used PLASTHING from Italy. Parts were for a large OEM that made writing instruments. The mold had a sprue bushing that required a "dipping" nozzle on the press that fit into the bushing.
I really liked the hot runner/manifold!

Terlux, is a methyl methacrylate / ABS. We found it a bit tricky. I seem to remember it getting rubbery, if over heated in any way.
