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
• Polymer jacket selected to optimize flex,
chemical, temperature, & UV resistance
Key Features
• .50mm – 30.00mm size capability
• Protect the core from mechanical,
environmental, and chemical damage
• Extend life of cable or strength member
• Enhance flame & chemical resistance
• Improve UV resistance
• Many polymers available
