| TPE 5490 is a natural, olefin-based thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) intended for wire and cable insulation and jacketing. It is designed to offer excellent low temperature flexibility and deformation resistance. TPE 5490 offers good extrusion processing characteristics on either conventional polyethylene or PVC extrusion lines. TPE 5490 is readily pigmented to a variety of colors using standard wire and cable color concentrates designed for thermoplastic or crosslinked polyolefins. UV weather resistance is obtainable by the addition of a suitable carbon black or UV additive. Application: TPE 5490 is intended for pump cable, flexible cord insulation, and fixture applications. It is also suitable for use in 75°C wet locations. Availability: North America Features: Low Temperature Flexibility Uses: Cable Jacketing; Insulation; Wire & Cable Applications Agency Ratings: UL 62, Class 36 Appearance: Natural Color Processing Method: Extrusion Information provided by M.
