UV Laser Marking for FEP

Colorant Chromatics™ UV Laser Marking Technology

Permanent, high contrast marking 

Fluoropolymers (FP) are a common choice for high performance wire and cable applications in many industries due to their ability to withstand high heat and corrosive environments. Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) is a preferred material for cable jacketing or insulation of a conductor, and often needs to be marked.

Colorant Chromatics™ UV Laser Marking technology for FEP allows a permanent and gentle marking of wire and cable surfaces. It provides excellent contrast and ensures integrity of the surface. This proprietary UV laser technology is a good choice for many applications in the wire and cable industry, and is especially suited for aerospace and aviation.
