Product Notes
- Cable Compatibility: Passes IEEE 1210 physical and electrical testing on a wide variety of cable materials. It does not stress crack polyethylene. Refer to the technical bulletin for details.
- Friction Testing: Shows excellent lubricity on a variety of cable jacket types. Using PVC conduit, the following COFs were measured: PVC .11, XLPE (XHHW) .06, LLDPE .07, Nylon (THHN) .08. Method described in “Coefficient of Friction Measurement on Polywater’s Friction Table, 2019”. Typical values determined using 200 lbs./ft (2.91 kN/m) normal force. Continues to lubricate after drying. Dry COF values are within 20% of the initial value.
- Temperature Use Range: Polywater SPY: 20°F to 120°F (-5°C to 50°C). Polywater WSPY (Winter Grade version): -20°F to 120°F (-30°C to 50°C).
