VESTAMID® NRG 2101 yellow

For Gas Pipe Fittings

VESTAMID® NRG 2101 yellow is a high molecular grade PA 12 material developed by Evonik.
Its superior performance characteristics make it an ideal choice for expanding the use of thermoplastic piping systems at higher operating pressure and larger diameters to replace metallic piping systems in a safe and cost effective manner.
Besides extending the operating pressure limits of thermoplastic piping systems, VESTAMID® NRG 2101 yellow offers many of the same benefits, and in most instances more superior performance, as conventional PE piping systems.

• Tough and durable

• Corrosion resistant

• Resistant to heavy hydrocarbons

• High resistance to Slow Crack Growth and

• Rapid Crack Propagation

• Increased installation efficiencies

• Worry free performance

These characteristics make the VESTAMID® PA12 material an ideal choice when selecting appropriate thermoplastic piping materials in extending your gas distribution infrastructure.

We recommend a processing temperature between 230°C (446°F) and 260°C (500°F) in some cases up to 280°C (536°F) - during the injection molding and extrusion process. The mold temperature should be within a range of 60°C (140°F) to 100°C (212°F).

Drying at 80°C (176°F) for 2 hours to 4 hours before processing is recommended.

Polyamide 12 is a high performance thermoplastic polymer with increased performance characteristics that translates into safe operations over the life of the installed pipeline.
It has a considerable record of safe and proven experience in many demanding applications, including fuel lines in passenger cars, air brake tubing in trucks and off-shore applications.
