In the PIT-S and Vasculex® options, no degradation occurs at 220°C in continuous service or at 400°C for short periods. Safety can hardly be threatened due to its flameless self extinction without emitting any poisonous fumes. It is available with a minimum inside thickness of 0.08mm, and wall thickness of 0.013mm is producible due to its high tensile strength. It allows for compact, delicate wiring in electronics or other instruments to be laid out, without concerns over space. PIT-S is UL-certified No.E58401.
Essex Polyimide Tubing and Vasculex® is used in a wide range of applications, including but not limited to:
- Insulation of peripheral wiring circuitry for thermocouples or thermistors.
- Insulation of internal, heat-spot wiring or circuitry for electric / electronic instruments.
- Covering of wiring in need of chemical resistance (except alkalis).
- Covering / insulation of circuitry in a nuclear plant or its peripheral facilities.
- Insulation of wiring or circuitry in need of fire resistance.
- Insulation of high density wiring for electronic device such as probe card.
Vasculex® For Medical Procedures
Its heat resistance allows for ratings above 220°C in continuous service or at 400°C for short periods and remains safe due to flameless self extinction without emitting poisonous flames.
