Frequently asked questions
Do you supply flame retardants for cable compounds?
Yes. Aluminium trihydrate (ATH) and other mineral fillers used for flame-retardant, low-smoke compounds are listed on this page.
Which polymers are used for rubber cable insulation?
EPDM is widely used for insulation because of its electrical properties and heat resistance; CR and other polymers are used for sheathing.
