Top-rated
pneumatic hoses and brake tubes can be easily produced using Zythane® 7045D,
which adds abrasion/tear/cut/puncture resistance, high burst pressure, high
elasticity and coil retention, long-term flexibility, oil/fuel /microbial
resistance, low-temperature flexibility and hydrolytic stability. Additionally,
Zythane® 7045D provides puncture and abrasion resistance, along with an
impressively high burst-pressure rating, yet it also ensures a high degree of flexibility
for kink resistance and ease of coiling.
Zythane® 7045D is a polyether-based TPU
specifically formulated for extrusion applications with ease of processing and
free of gels. It exhibits excellent abrasion resistance and toughness and has
good hydrolytic stability, oil, fuel and solvent resistance. It is supplied
uncolored in pellet form.
In addition to pneumatic tubing, Zythane® 7045D
applications include FDA applications; cable sheathing, spiral tubing, film,
irrigation hoses, conveyor hoses, fire hoses, hydraulic hoses, cable jacketing,
flat flex cables, automotive sensor cables.
Polyether-based grades of Zythane® TPUs offer
improved microbial resistance, enhanced resistance to weak acids/bases and
moisture/humidity, and low service temperatures. The robust characteristics of
Zythane® TPUs make it the superior choice for use in hose and tube
applications.
