Castable urethanes for use in OEM applications.


Liquid Flexane compounds are said to be ideal for a variety of OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and  applications, including strain relief, potting and encapsulating, forming non-scratching holding fixtures, and edging and sealing felt belts and dryer fabric in the paper industry. Also used for patching cable jackets after splicing splicing /splic·ing/ (spli´sing)
1. the attachment of individual DNA molecules to each other, as in the production of chimeric genes.

2. RNA s.
, these castable, non-shrinking, waterproof urethanes are said to hold up indoors or outdoors under conditions of abrasion, vibration and temperature cycling.

Flexane compounds are said to withstand service temperatures ranging to 350[degrees]F. Liquid Flexanes produce no VOC (Vertical Online Community) See vertical portal.  emissions, cure at room temperature and are available in several viscosities with cured hardnesses from durometer 78A (or lower with Flex-Add additive) to durometer 97A, tensile strengths to 3,300 psi, tear resistances to 515 pli and dielectric strengths to 350 volts/mil.

Flexanes for strain relief and potting, encapsulating and insulating electrical connectors, wires and cables include Flexane 80 liquid, a medium-viscosity formula that cures to semi-rigid rubber (durometer 87A). Flexane 94 liquid is a low-viscosity encapsulant en·cap·su·lant
