HDPE
wire and cable insulation
HDPE grade for wire and cable insulation is a high-density polyethylene material widely used due to its excellent electrical insulation properties, high mechanical strength, and resistance to moisture and chemicals.
It offers stable dielectric performance, low water absorption, and long service life, making it suitable for telecommunication, power, and data transmission cables.
Black HDPE Compound for jacketing of power cables and insulation of optical fibers.
