Halar®
self-extinguishing sleeving is used where
flammability, high temperature endurance and low
outgassing are primary concerns. Halar® is
braided from 11 mil ethylene
chlorotriflouroethylene (ECTFE) copolymer
monofilament.
Because of its low flame
spread and smoke generation properties, this
product meets UL 2024 and NFPA 262 plenum
specifications, carries a UL flame resistance
rating of VW-1 and exceeds automotive industry
requirements of FMVSS 302, as well as aviation
industry requirements of FAR 25.
Halar® resists a wide
range of corrosive chemicals and organic
solvents, including strong acids, chlorine and
aqueous caustics. Halar® ECTFE also
maintains useful properties on exposure to
cobalt 60 radiation at doses up to 200 megarads.
