- Arnitel is proven to deliver superior flexibility and performance in the most extreme temperatures.
- Arnitel is the best solution from system-cost point of view.
- Arnitel is easy and cost-efficient to process, reducing cycle time compared with rubber.
- In automotive, Arnitel is successfully used for vacuum brake tubes, air brake tubes and convoluted tubes.
- For industrial applications Arnitel is ideal for hydraulic hoses, pneumatic tubes and mandrels.
- The material is environmentally friendly and sustainable by not using processing oils and plasticizers.
Arnitel combines the strength and processing features of thermoplastics with the flexibility of rubber. Specifically:
Arnitel is proven to deliver superior flexibility and performance - including impact strength, stiffness, mechanical properties and chemical resistance - across a wide temperature range (-40°C to 200°C).
Arnitel is proven to deliver system-cost reduction due to reduction in weight, integration of functions and reduction of cycle time.
Arnitel for tubes and hoses is easy and cost-efficient to process -through extrusion - compared to conventional materials like PA11, PA12 and rubber. Furthermore the material reduces cycle time thanks to its ability to achieve optimal performance without the extra processes associated with vulcanization.
In the automotive field Arnitel is succesfully used for a variety of applications including vacuum brake tubes, air brake tubes and convoluted tubes providing stiffness at up to 200°C (peak temperature). Arnitel resists high pressures at equally high temperatures. Arnitel is resistant to oils and greases and meets strict industry regulations.
In the industrial field, Arnitel is ideal for products like hydraulic hoses, pneumatic tubes and mandrels. The material performs excellent at a broad temperature range, and delivers excellent pressure resistance. Example: Arnitel for mandrels extends its service life by allowing more than 10 vulcanization cycles.
Arnitel is an environmentally friendly solution, through traditional recycling methods as well as innovative new methods of sustainability. Furthermore Arnitel does not need processing oils and plasticizers, which are suspected to endanger health and environment -– in line with our goal of producing Living Solutions that benefit people, profit and planet.
