PVC compound for power plugs

PVC / 01

Application overview

For molded power-plug bodies, clarify whether the PVC is used for overmolding or another component and provide the part drawing. Color, target hardness and the molding arrangement are useful starting points. Electrical-product requirements apply to the relevant finished construction and must be agreed explicitly. A hardness reference alone cannot establish electrical suitability.

Processing discussion

For an injection-molding enquiry, share the part drawing, mold information and current processing conditions. Record the material grade and trial conditions together with the observed result. Processing settings must be agreed for the selected formulation and equipment; this page does not prescribe a universal temperature or cycle.
