Everflon™ / Communications Materials

Every connection.
     Starts with a material.

Explore fluoropolymers for wire insulation, cable jackets and electronic components. Bring electrical, thermal and mechanical requirements into one material conversation.

Signal-path concept. Not a cable cross-section or measured performance plot.

Real applications. Clear material starting points.

Find the application.
   Meet the material.

Explore six cable and component applications, with recommended Everflon™    grades for initial evaluation.

Illustrations are conceptual and not to scale. Recommendations concern    the specified insulation or component, not every layer shown.    Confirm grade suitability through current technical data and finished-product testing.

01 / Coaxial cable

A dielectric built around the signal.

Foamed insulation around the center conductor of a coaxial cable.

Recommended for evaluation

Everflon™ FEP PF4610

FEP physical-foaming resin

Evaluate for coaxial dielectric extrusion with gas injection.

         View FEP PF4610 ↗        

Design check:        Confirm cell structure, capacitance and finished-cable impedance.

02 / Data cable

Make room for dielectric design.

Foamed conductor insulation for high-speed data cable development.

Recommended for evaluation

Everflon™ FEP PF4610

FEP physical-foaming resin

A candidate for evaluating foamed data-cable insulation.

         View FEP PF4610 ↗        

Design check:        Validate pair geometry, impedance and insertion loss; no data-rate rating is implied.

03 / RF signal wire

Precision in the insulation wall.

PTFE insulation for high-frequency signal wire and cable constructions.

Recommended for evaluation

Everflon™ PTFE F1000

PTFE fine powder

Evaluate the paste-extrusion and sintering route for wire insulation.

         View PTFE F1000 ↗        

Design check:        Match the reduction ratio, wall dimensions and sintering process to the design.

04 / Equipment wiring

Connect inside the equipment.

Primary insulation for industrial hook-up and instrumentation wires.

Recommended for evaluation

Everflon™ FEP 4610

Melt-processable FEP resin

Evaluate for solid extruded insulation on equipment wiring.

         View FEP 4610 ↗        

Design check:        Verify insulation thickness, electrical integrity and service conditions.

05 / Wire harnesses

Consider the mechanical demands.

Insulation on wires routed through equipment harnesses.

Recommended for evaluation

Everflon™ ETFE 4010

Melt-processable ETFE resin

A candidate where electrical insulation and mechanical toughness matter.

         View ETFE 4010 ↗        

Design check:        Assess routing, cut-through resistance and the required temperature range.

06 / Connector inserts

Insulate at the interface.

Molded insulating inserts that locate and separate connector contacts.

Recommended for evaluation

Everflon™ ETFE 4010

Injection-moldable ETFE resin

Evaluate molding behavior and electrical insulation for the insert design.

         View ETFE 4010 ↗        

Design check:        Check dimensional stability, contact spacing and assembly tests.

                   03 / Qualification

What counts as acceptance?

List the service environment, mechanical tests, required documents and applicable cable test requirements. Agree on the acceptance criteria before the material trial.

Communications materials / FAQ

Before you choose.

Where should I start with fluoropolymer cable materials?

Begin with the function: primary insulation, outer jacket or an electronic component. Then provide the construction, operating conditions, processing method and acceptance criteria.

How should I compare PTFE, solid FEP and foamed FEP?

Treat them as different material and processing routes. Use the relevant grade information to plan trials, then compare results on constructions that meet the same application requirements.

Does a resin property guarantee finished-cable performance?

No. Request the test conditions behind each resin value and define a separate test plan for your cable or assembly. Approve the construction against its own specification.

What should I include in a technical inquiry?

Share a drawing or cable specification, the intended use, production method, target properties and qualification requirements. An existing material reference can help make the discussion more precise.
