I looked at the spec data. The section that deals with heat testing points out that they used ASTM E136, which is the "Standard Test Method for behavior of Materials in a Vertical Tube Furnace at 750 deg C" (1382 deg F). There was no marked deformation to the material during this test. I have contacted the manufacturer to get their fully detailed test results. If I find out anything to the contrary of what I have presented I will post it up.
