• Fire performance: CPR classification Dca s1 a1 d0 at a
thickness of 350µm
• Low shrinkage
• Water, UV, and chemical resistance
• Low coefficient of friction (CoF)
• Reduced overall cable weight cable by
reducing the jacket thickness from 550µm to
350µm
• Increased the lifetime value of the cable by
providing superior chemical and UV resistance
• Provided low CoF on the inner layer, making
the solution suitable for use with micro ducts
as it’s easier to blow cables inside

Overview
• FIBER-LINE® extrusion is the process of
forming a polymer jacket of various thickness
around a core of high-performance fibers
• Fiber core can be parallel, twisted, or in
rope form

chemical, temperature, & UV resistance
Key Features
• .50mm – 30.00mm size capability
• Protect the core from mechanical,
environmental, and chemical damage

These materials
can also deteriorate with ultraviolet (UV) and chemical
exposure from sunlight and cleaning.
EZR Sport wanted a flexible foam grip that could be
chemically resistant to gun oil and diethyltoluamide
or DEET (the most common active chemical ingredient
in insect repellents), UV resistant for longer-lasting
aesthetics, and compliant with California’s Proposition
65 law (requiring businesses to provide warnings to
Californians about significant exposures to chemicals
that cause cancer, congenital disabilities or other
reproductive harm).
This technology also helps achieve
superior grip properties, improving haptics for a
better sense of touch and feel while remaining UV-
resistant, chemical resistant to DEET and oils, and
bio-compatible.
