FLUID TRANSFER

Convoluted and smooth-bore tubing are used for fuel supply, power steering,
and exible brake lines.

WIRING HARNESS

Tubing, Heat Shrink, Spiral Cut, Engineered Surface Tubing and Braided Fiber
aid in protecting and routing critical wiring bundles.

ELECTRIC MOTOR

PEEK Insulated Wire, PEEKshrink and PEEK Slot Liners ensure long life and
maximize eciency in electric motors.

BATTERY SYSTEMS

FEP Heat Shrink is used for high temperature and voltage cell insulation.

SENSORS/FIBER OPTICS

Heat Shrink, Convoluted, Engineered Surface Tubing and Spiral Cut products are
used to insulate and protect sensors, ber optics and wiring back to the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM).

MANUFACTURING AIDS

Heat Shrink is used for forming critical composite parts.
