Chemical & Fluid Exposure

Stays stable in contact with oils, coolants, solvents, and the aggressive fluids found on the shop floor.

The Environment

Built For Chemical & Fluid Exposure

On floors awash in oils, coolants, solvents, and cutting fluids, ordinary jackets swell, soften, and degrade. Crosslinked compounds resist that chemical attack, keeping the jacket stable in environments where fluids are a constant.

Chemical & Fluid Exposure
How It Works

What the beam actually changes

Crosslinks lock the polymer chains in place so aggressive fluids cannot penetrate and swell the material as easily. The jacket keeps its mechanical properties and dimensional stability even after prolonged contact with shop-floor chemicals.

  • Resists swelling and softening from oils and coolants
  • Stable in contact with solvents and cutting fluids
  • Maintains mechanical properties after chemical exposure
  • Better suited to harsh industrial environments

Where It Matters
Heavy Fabrication

Heavy Fabrication

Rugged welding cable that survives the drag, sparks, and abuse of the fab shop floor.

Plasma Cutting

Plasma Cutting

Flexible, heat-resistant lead sets that keep CNC plasma tables running clean cuts.

Cable Protection

Cable Protection

Metallic and non-metallic conduit that shields cable from heat, abrasion, and impact.
