Menzolit® SMC 1400 is a sheet moulding compound based on unsaturated polyester resin. The product is glass fibre reinforced and contains mineral fillers. In case of fire the product doesn't melt, neither does it form droplets nor is smoke generation excessive. The material is compression moulded in heated steel moulds. It is recommended to work with chrome plated tools. The product contains no halogens nor heavy metals.

Menzolit® SMC 1400 is a special SMC being used in the environment of a combustion engine. The glass level has been selected to combine good mouldability with good stiffness and strength properties. The product shows an excellent resistance to common fuels, lubricants, cooling liquids and cleaning materials. Because of its specific matrix resin it is suitable for cyclic loads at higher service temperatures. Typical applications are valve covers, camshaft drive covers, gear box covers as well as oil pans or housings for auxiliary drive systems.
