All of the materials that General Reliance offers for their cable assemblies have specific applications and properties. Below is a table with the common cable materials and their related properties. General Reliance offers these materials for the jacketing and molding.
| Elastomer | Temp. Range | Strengths | Weaknesses |
-35 - +110 C |
Resistance to ozone, oil, grease, seawater; self extinguishable |
Incompatible with fuels and solvents, low temperature stiffness |
|
-50 - 150 C |
Excellent resistance to weathering, aging, ozone, acids, diluted bases, hot water & steam. Good heat resistance and low temperature properties. Excellent electrical insulator |
Incompatible with oils, is flammable |
|
