Basic TRICAT
Two metal mesh sleeves enclose a rectangular or round-section elastomer
core.
Watertight TRICAT
A TRICAT, specially studied for watertightness, ensures the electric continuity
of wires.
TRICAT with a flange
The outer mesh sleeve forms a flange which enables bonding onto a flat
surface.
Double TRICAT
The onter metal mesh sleeve encloses 2 parallel gaskets. The middle section
forms the bonding surface.
Silicones :
Their mechanical performances are remarkably
stable at low and high temperatures. Excellent
resistance to oxidation and to atmospheric
agents and to ozone. Very good chemical resistance
to acids, diluted salts and oils with a high aniline
point.
Note : for hydrocarbon environments only fluoro
silicones are suitable.
Temperature tolerance : -55 to +200°C.
Polychloroprenes :
Their average ratio of resilience enables
polychloroprenes to be used in most TRICAT
products.
Tolerance to pollutants and harsh environment all
conditions : excellent.
Temperature tolerance : -45 to +75°C
Mechanical resistance : (tearing, abrasion) :
excellent.
Chemical resistance (acids, mineral oils, grease) :
excellent.
Polyurethanes :
Very tolerant to stress, polyurethanes also offer
excellent resistance to chemical products. They also
have no retention and very low resilience.
Temperature tolerance : -45 to +120°C.
