Mantle partnered with toolmakers to collect data and characterize the Mantle P2X material. This material performance study compares the performance of Mantle P2X to that of standard P20 tooling steel for various standard moldmaking procedures, material properties, and its behavior during production molding processes with a highly abrasive nylon material (40% GF plus 25% Mineral filled Nylon).

• Tool modification performance: milling, grinding, drilling, welding, EDM, and flatness properties
• Surface finish operation performance: texturing and polishing
• Hardness properties
• Thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance
• Molding example of highly abrasive resin
