The "Black PVC" is ABS. Was told that ABS can handle a higher temperature
than the white PVC.

...I suppose I should mention that this is the information that I was given
at HomeDepot. HomeDepots "Black PVC" is actually ABS plastic.
I believe this to be correct, but if someone has valid information
otherwise...let us know.
I have had no problems with my
etup( http://webpages.charter.net/khoegen/mods.html )
I believe that I have read some DMLers having problems with cracking...but I
have never seen this and my set-up has been on my Dak for ~2.5years. Then
again, I have also painted and sanded the ends (sanding to get rid of any
minute cracks caused by the initial cutting of the ABS) of my set-up before
the installation which may have provided some structural benefits ??
