Decorative 6565-Rated High Impact Sheet
A new grade of PVC/Acrylic alloy sheet for thermoforming of aircraft interior components is offered in unlimited custom patterns. Called Boltaron 9815D, the sheet exhibits Izod impact resistance of 5.0 ft lbs/in (265 J/m), significantly improving the durability of formed components, while meeting FAR 6565 requirements for flammability, smoke generation and heat release.

Unlimited custom patterns such as carbon fiber, wood grains, abstracts and simulated fabrics are available in a range of surface textures with low minimums according to the company.

The sheet is extruded in gauges from 0.040 to .250" in widths to 48" and lengths to 120" with custom sizes available, and is said to maintain uniform wall thickness and pattern consistency when thermoformed into deep recesses and over outside corners. It can also be readily sawn, drilled, tapped, routed and otherwise machined using conventional tools and can be brake formed, heat welded, adhesive bonded and mechanically fastened, allowing rapid fabrication.

Typical applications include dividers, galley components, lavatory parts, PSUs, seat parts, tray tables, window reveals and moldings.
