Dead-end insulators

The Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) is an elastomeric alloy with superior flame retardance and UV resistance properties. The material is highly flexible, halogen-free and passes the FV0 test, the most severe and demanding flammability test in the industry (Ref. IEC Pub. 707). The material is also 100 recyclable.
