Product Description
ETFE EP-7000 is a fluoropolymer specifically designed for the Automotive Industry. This resin has an excellent permeation resistance to hydrocarbons and adheres well to many kinds of plastics without adhesive or etching.

ETFE EP-7000 can be easily co-extruded into multi layer tubing and offers the following advantages for automotive applications:
  • Excellent permeation resistance to hydrocarbons
  • Increased temperature resistance
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Co-extrusion with other resins (nylons, ETFE, EFEP) without adhesive or etching
  • Cold impact resistance
