Product information
Product data
Construction / Material
| Type of construction | extruded hose without metal spiral |
| Execution of the wall | made of a material with a low coefficient of friction, made of a material with dielectric properties, made from a self-lubricating material |
| Material of the wall | fully fluorinated plastic FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) or thermoplastically processable copolymer of HFP (hexafluoropropylene) and TFE (tetrafluoroethylene) |
| Specifications of the wall | fire resistance/non flammable (UL 94: V0) |
Properties
| Chemical Properties | very good resistance to chemicals, good UV resistance, free from paint wetting impairment substances (LABS), weather-resistant, non wetting, chemical inertness, good resistance to corrosive chemicals, good resistance to solvents |
| Mechanical Properties | high Hardness and wear resistance |
| Physical Properties | iow permeation, low surface energy |
| Other | non-toxic, non stick/self cleaning, Highest transparency of fully fluorinated plastics, resistance to harsh environment, easier and faster to process than PTFE heat shrink tubing, ideally suited for temperature-sensitive objects |
Operating Temperature
| Temperature Range | -200 to 205 °C |
| short-term maximum temperature | permanently temperature-resistant up to 205 °C |
Application Areas
| Areas of application | Automotive, Chemistry, Industry, Plastics, Food & Pharma, Ventilation & Air-conditioning, Medical Technology, Robotics & Automation |
Customizing Options
| optional item modification (on request) | other colours, sterilisable, autoclavable, weldable, NSF Compliance depending on grade, Food compliant (FDA/EU...) depending on type, ATEX conform conductive properties on request |
Application areas
Supply variants
Delivery format: Manufactured lengths on spools or straight lengths of 1.22 m (please specify),Other colours or wall thicknesses as well as customised lengths can be manufactured according to customer requirements. | Recommended shrinkage temperature: 160 °C - 190 °C, Length shrinkage of +/-10 % possible during the shrinkage process
