Cable management solutions for high temperature applications –
We replace metal with heat resistant plastic components

Our tailor-made plastic components for high temperature applications – developed for your individual needs.


High temperature is a key issue from the automotive industry to aerospace, rail, ship building and chemical industry, engineers face challenges posed by high temperature scenarios time and again. We develop customised products such as heat resistant cable ties made of plasticshigh temperature insulation products or heat resistant sleeving to meet your individual demands. We replace metal with plastics such as PA46, PEEK and E/TFE (Tefzel®) – even in applications involving a high operating temperature – without compromising on quality and performance.
Our customers profit from many advantages offered by heat resistant plastics, such as

  • Chemical resistance
  • Reduced weight
  • More flexibility
  • Processing ease.

HellermannTyton's core competence includes development and manufacture of plastic injection moulded parts, both in the single as well as in the more-component technology. Our long-standing expertise in the production of high-quality plastic components for cable management solutions is bundled in our Technology Centre.

High Temperature Material Features High Temperature Material Features


Cable management products made of PEEK for high temperature applications up to +240 °C

The heat resistant material PEEK is considered to be one of the highest-performing thermoplastics on the market.
HellermannTyton`s products manufactured from PEEK have been designed for use in hazardous environments and are suitable for applications where temperatures can reach +240 °C (continuous operating temperature).
As well as having excellent radiation resistance properties, PEEK is highly resistant to chemicals. PEEK products are suitable for the use in various applications and industrial sectors.

We replace metal components with solutions made of plastic. Due to its combined properties, PEEK can be used instead of metal components to offer unique weight advantages in your applications.
 



Advantages of the heat resistant material PEEK:

  • For high temperature applications from -55 °C to +240 °C
  • Weight advantages compared to metal
  • Excellent radiation and chemical resistance
  • Outstanding wear resistance over wide ranges of pressure, velocity, temperature and counter facial roughness
