Conclusion
 Grit level and Ash content of KLAREX RG 113 is much lower than ASTM N539, which exhibits excellent
surface finish of the extruded profiles.
 The compound throughput of KLAREX RG 113 is substantially higher than ASTM N539. This is expected
to translate to substantially lower in-process scrap generation and increased productivity.
KLAREX RG 113 displays superior surface finish
 KLAREX RG 113 tapes show superior surface
finish compared to International Competition
(indicated by its low visible defect count)
