Suitable for commercial applications requiring heat resistance (electrical and hydraulic systems near aircraft or automotive engines or in fuel tanks), applications in chemically exposed environments (industrial process equipment in the pulp and paper, steel, and chemical industries), and equipment for handling caustic or dangerous chemicals or inks. Use for insulation and strain relief on appliances (electric ranges, microwave ovens, gas grills, and industrial paint-drying equipment) and for protection of delicate electronic instruments in down-hole applications.
