Details
Arnitel® UM551 in use for convoluted tubes or cable protection under-the-bonnet.Benefits
- Arnitel® TPC allows for reliable solutions due its high temperature resistance (class T3 and T4, Class D (150°C) enabling thin and ultra thin wall designs, Class E (175°C) >20 mm2 thick and thin wall)
- Arnitel® TPC allows for cost effective solutions (up to 50% lower system costs versus ETFE/FEP, 40% weight down versus XL PO at similar costs)
- Arnitel® TPC allows for sustainable solutions due to availability of halogen free flameretardant grades
