| Our team of experienced Engineers and Rubber Technologists select the most appropriate materials based on the intended application and environment. For lower temperature requirements, we apply the capability of various organic polymers, each with it’s own unique temperature and chemical resistant properties. This includes EPDM, polychloroprene and PVC Nitrile. | Where increased durability and higher temperature resistance is required, we have a range of silicone and fluorosilicone elastomer compounds to apply. These combat a range of environmental challenges such as coolants, oils and charged air. Where extreme chemical and temperature resistance is required a fluorocarbon polymer can be applied. This will function in temperatures up to 275°C (527°F). |
Thermally Reflective
Heat Shields
Intergrally moulded flexible heat shields can be incorporated where the application is in close proximity to a radiant heat source. The heat shield can be applied to a large proportion of the hose or as a localised patch on complex surfaces.
Radiant heat sources up to 550 ˚C (1,054 F) and within 5mm-6mm (0.20” - 0.24”) of the hose can be tolerated.
