ECCOH™ Low Smoke & Fume Non-Halogen Formulation 5981
UV and chemically resistant thermoplastic for Teck 90 cable outer jackets
ECCOH 5981 UV thermoplastic is a cost-effective
material for jacketing, combining high environmental
stress crack resistance (ESCR), UV performance, good
shear strength, and flame-retardant properties for
low-voltage, armored cables.
The ECCOH
5981 UV grade prevents cracking, absorbs stress,
withstands low temperatures, and resists chemicals,
helping to reduce damage to cable construction,
mitigate risks during installation and use, and avoid
costly field repairs.
Offering excellent mechanical properties, the ECCOH
5981 UV formulation provides a durable material
choice for Teck 90 cables used in demanding
locations where safety is paramount.
