Material: |
Flash: Thermal set resin |
Blazer: Thermo-plastic |
|
Thermal-set polyurethane
The Flash is made from a thermal-set resin compound and molded into
strips. A polyurethane thermal-set resin is inherently superior to
extruded plastic. |
Thermo-Plastic
The Blazer is made from long strips of thermal plastic. The extrusion
process involves heating plastic material and forcing the heated plastic
through an orifice. |
| |
|
| Colors |
Flex-Fletch colors are brilliant. Our process, involving less heat
than extrusion allows for brighter colors and less fade. |
