Rigid Polyvinyl Chloride
(PVC)
A general purpose material for use
in indoor applications. PVC has a
UL 94 flammability rating of V-0
and is UL Recognized for continuous
use temperatures up to 122°F (50°C).
PVC is an economical wiring
duct material.
Halogen-Free
(Modified Polyphenylene Oxide)
A special purpose
material for use in halogen-free
or high temperature applications.
Modified PPO has a UL 94 flammability
rating of V-0 and is UL Recognized for
continuous use temperatures up to 203°F
(95°C), and is 20% lighter than PVC.
Polypropylene
A flexible material with a UL 94
flammability rating of V-2 and UL
Recognized for continuous use
temperatures up to 149°F (65°C).
