ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS
RVP understands that our products, seem too good to be true. However, our hangers' performance, both in the field as well as in the lab, have met and/or exceeded expectations. This is why we have chosen to dedicate a full web page publishing test and lab results from a credited independent laboratory.

ENGINEERING PLASTICS
As a nylon resin our Fill Hanger is an engineering plastic. Engineering plastics, such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polycarbonates (used in motorcycle helmets), and polyamides (nylons) fall in a category of plastic materials known for having a much better mechanical and/or thermal set of properties than more widely used commodity plastics (PVC, polypropylene, polystyrene, and polyethylene).
Due to cost engineering plastics are often produced in lower quantities and therefore tend to be used for lower-volume applications or in smaller objects, such as mechanical parts that would otherwise be made of wood or metal. Engineering plastics, however, have gradually begun to replace traditional engineering materials in several applications because they have proven to equal or surpass them in weight/strength and other properties. Engineering plastics are also easier to manufacture, especially in complex shapes.
