Description / Abstract:
Material Description. Materials approved to this specification include compression molded and moldable composite materials.
Phenolic resin based materials are not allowed for interior applications.
Injection molded thermoplastic materials are not covered by this specification. Materials intended for this specification are normally processed by compression thermoforming.
Materials intended to be used in substrate applications must also meet the assembly performance requirements per GMW14444 as assembled.
Symbols. Not applicable.
Applicability. Typical applications include interior trim substrates with textile covering (i.e., rear window trim, rear compartment side trim, deck lid trim, load floors, front compartment trim, door trim, etc.)
Remarks.
Classification:
Type I: Materials to be used in rear window trim or load cover.
Type II: Materials to be used in cargo side trim, deck lid trim or rear compartment trim.
Type III: Materials to be used in load floor panels.
Type IV: Materials to be used in door trim panels.
Type V: Materials to be used in front compartment trim.
