“EPOFLEXY”

“EPOFLEXY” is a very tough and durable material perfect for the manufacture of model aircraft. When

using screwed fixings with “EPOFLEXY” components it is important to tighten the screws sufficiently to provide a firm fixing.

Excess tightening could result in the foam material becoming compressed, possibly damaging or distorting the part. Take care to ensure that all screws are tightened sufficiently to provide a firm fixing, but do-not over tighten. We recommend that all fixings are checked regularly for security and safety purposes.
