Daikin America manufactures and sells a full range of fluoropolymers ideally suited for a wide variety of high performance wire and cable. These high performance wire and cables are used across a broad range of industries.

Daikin’s FEP resins are used extensively in the manufacture of data-communications cable where a combination of excellent electrical properties and extraordinarily low flame spread and low smoke characteristics are needed. Copper based Category 5e, 6, 6e, and even augmented Cat 6 (6a) cables, capable of achieving 10 gigabit transmission speeds, are easily produced with FEP products. And, cables manufactured with Daikin conform to the strictest fire performance codes and standards in North America as well as the rest of the world. The ease of processing, combined with consistency and uniformity, has made Daikin a leader in this market. Daikin’s FEP allows cable manufacturers to control the tight tolerances required to ensure gigabit transmission rates as local area networks continue to require ever higher bandwidth to drive emerging data, voice, and video technologies. In addition to supplying the premium FEP resin products, Daikin is also an active product steward in the telecommunications industry. Daikin participates in industry organizations such as IEEE, BICSI, NFPA, CFRA and SPI to ensure that the evolution of technology meets future requirements for data transmission speeds and fire performance across the globe.

Daikin fluoropolymer products are used in other, highly specialized wires and cables. These wires and cables service industries such as automotive, mobile cellular technology, military, and aerospace. Daikin’s PTFE is used in automotive oxygen sensors, mil spec wire, co-axial cable, high temperature hook up wire, and in airframe applications. PFA and FEP are used to make high temperature wire for appliances as well as the mobile cellular market. And, Daikin’s ETFE products are ideal for cross-linked aerospace cabling and for high temperature automotive under-hood applications.

Daikin’s complete range of fluoropolymer products offers one-stop shopping to manufactures of high performance wires and cables. Combining this with our reputation for quality and technical service makes Daikin the first choice for sourcing fluoropolymer resins for high performance wire and cable technologies.
