Polyolefin Tubing
ASTRATITE Type AVF cross
linked flexible polyolefin tubing is an exceptionally flexible,
highly flame retarded tubing with an exceptionally low recovery
temperature. It will fully recover in approximately five minutes
depending on oven conditions and item being covered.
Type II Flexible Polyolefin tubing, clear, requires 110°C
for full recovery. This low shrink temperature reduces energy costs,
reduces cycle time, improves productivity and reduces the danger of
damage to heat sensitive parts. During the shrinkage operation, this
tubing will encapsulate any device previously inserted inside it, and
will assume the contour of that device.
It is useful for skin-tight covering of splices, resistors, diodes,
mechanical parts, terminations, etc. AVF tubing is superior to other
heat shrinkable polyolefin tubings in that it passes the very stringent
flammability test of ASTM D876. Type II Flexible Polyolefin tubing
is the corresponding very flexible, clear product which is flammable.
Both Type I and Type II Flexible Polyolefin Tubings are formulated
for long-term heat and corrosion resistance. Type I tubing is also
formulated for superior performance in flame resistance, low temperature
flexibility and chemical resistance. Continuous operation range is –55°C to +125°C.
Type I Flexible Polyolefin tubing conforms to SAE Aerospace
Material Specification AMS 3587. Type II Flexible Polyolefin tubing
conforms to Aerospace Material Specification AMS 3588.
