Motorsport. The winning formula in high performance plastics.

The underside of a World Rally Car sustains incredible punishment on just a single forest or gravel rally stage, so it’s obvious why a hard wearing, durable material like Kaylan® is proving so popular in the fabrication of rally car parts.

The need for protection
With up to 450bhp going to the wheels, you can imagine the damage that stones, mud, grit and sand can do to the exposed suspension and other mechanicals as they bombard these precision, and extremely expensive, items at high velocity. Accordingly, manufacturers who have spent millions of pounds designing such thoroughbreds, insist that only the very best materials are used to protect the vehicle properly.

The simple solution
Fortunately, Kaylan special elastomers are purpose-built to overcome the rigours of such harsh environments. Capable of withstanding repeated flexing, excellent in extremes of temperature (-30°C to +80°C), and resistant to both high impact and abrasion, Kaylan is the ideal material to protect such expensive machinery.
