LFT-G® PP LGF50 | The Ultimate PP GF50 for Stiffness & Metal Replacement
Product Description & Features
LFT-G® PP LGF50 -NG05H is the definitive structural upgrade for designs specifying "PP GF50". While standard short-fiber PP GF50 offers high stiffness, it fails in true structural roles due to poor creep resistance and brittleness. LFT-G® PP LGF50-NG05H is a homopolymer (Homo) grade with 50% long glass fiber (LFRT), engineered for one purpose: maximum stiffness and metal replacement.
The 50% long glass fiber content forms an incredibly dense, rigid internal "skeleton" within the molded part. This structure provides a flexural modulus that directly competes with die-cast aluminum, but at a fraction of the weight.
- √ Extreme Stiffness: Delivers the highest rigidity in the PP family, ideal for large parts that cannot flex or deform under heavy load.
- √ Superior Creep Resistance: Unlike SGF PP GF50, the LFRT network prevents material "sag" over time, even at elevated temperatures, making it essential for structural components.
- √ Metal Replacement: Offers a viable, lightweight, and cost-effective alternative to die-cast aluminum or magnesium for major structural parts (e.g., appliance chassis, automotive frames).

Processing Information
The following values are recommendations. We recommend desiccant / dry air dryers (moisture content below 0.1%).
To minimize fiber breakage and ensure optimal performance, a low-compression, general-purpose screw is highly recommended.
| Parameter | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Drying Temperature | 80 - 100 °C |
| Drying Time | 2 - 4 hours |
| Melt Temperature (Nozzle ③) | 230 - 270 °C |
| Mold Temperature (Zone ②) | 60 - 90 °C |
| Back Pressure | Low (to minimize fiber damage) |
