Wire and Cable Applications
Cable Ties
Kynar® PVDF Cable Ties
When extreme conditions cause cable ties made of common grade polymers to fail, the unique properties of Kynar Flex® PVDF and Rilsan® polyamide resins present a solution. Rilsan® polyamide resins offer abrasion, impact, weather, and corrosion resistance, as well as toughness and easy processing. In applications with highly corrosive chemicals, UV exposure, or high purity requirements, Kynar Flex® PVDF resin offers a solution. Additionally, Kynar Flex® resin has excellent flame and smoke properties which meet NFPA-70A and UL94V-0, ideal for use in structure plenums.
