Silicone Coated FEP with Nomex Jacket
Silicone coated FEP is processed with a silicone rubber coating applied to the etched surface in the form of a thin wall. This continuous coating provides potting characteristics similar to silicone rubber cable and allows the user to achieve a superior dielectric bond when using silicone rubber potting or adhesives.

Note 1: Add .025 inch/0.63mm to diameter over silicone coated insulation to arrive at diameter over the Nomex jacket.

Note 2: To prevent fraying of the Nomex jacket, apply a small band of epoxy resin about 1 inch from the end of the Nomex jacket. Mow to cure and trim back the Nomex to the leading edge of the cured epoxy. Alternative methods are shrink sleeving or silicone rubber sleeving in place of the epoxy resin.

With the addition of a Nomex woven jacket over the silicone coated surface of the FEP insulation, the cable offers excellent abrasion resistance.

Operating Temperature
