About this Product

HFDK-4201 EC is a long-life, unfilled, crosslinkable, low density polyethylene insulation compound designed for distribution and transmission power cable MV (Medium Voltage) insulation applications. It has a very low level of contamination and bears the designation Extra Clean (EC). HFDK-4201 EC has been designed to have a low level of additive bloom for a long storage life, low dusting and an enhanced degree of scorch retardance for long production run lengths during cable manufacture.

HFDK-4201 EC is recommended for the insulation of power distribution cables rated up to 46 kV and can be used for transmission cables rated up to 69 kV
