Why Engineers are Switching to Mako P-2603
Fully Compliant with AMS-3845B
P-2603 is engineered specifically to meet the AMS-3845B specification (Class 1 or 2, all Styles). It delivers the necessary glass transition temperatures (Tg) and mechanical properties required for structural applications in high temp ducts, exhaust wrap, jet engines, airframes, and high-performance industrial equipment. It is most commonly supplied on 7781 style fiberglass with black dye.
Fully Compliant with AMS-3845B
Project timelines don't wait for "out of stock" notices. While other manufacturers are struggling with backlogs, Mako Advanced Materials prioritizes a robust inventory of resin ingredients and common fabrics. We offer significantly shorter lead times than Cycom® 3002 or L-603® polyimide prepregs, ensuring your production line stays moving.
Responsive Technical Support
At Mako Advanced Materials, you aren't just buying a resin; you’re gaining a technical partner. Our sales and engineering teams are highly responsive, providing qualification support, testing, documentation, TDS, SDS, and processing guidance you need to qualify P-2603 Polyimide as an offset or alternative for your specific program.
Applications for P-2603
P-2603 Short Lead Time Polyimide Prepreg is the ideal solution for parts requiring high strength and long-term heat resistance up to 450F (230C) and short-term exposure up to 555F (290C) including:
- Aerospace engine components and cowlings
- High-temperature composite ducting
- Structural military aircraft components
- Space and satellite hardware
- Exhaust tube wrap
- Thermal insulation components
- Requirements for a safer, newer, MDA-Free polyimide
