INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CUTTING & DRILLING
Recommended blade: Industrial fine cut-off saw blade, 10" x 80 teeth 38° ATB grind with 5/8" bore,
PTFE coating
Recommended router bits: 3/8" diameter, 4 flute TiAlN (titanium aluminum nitride) coated carbide bit
FORMING
Apply localized 400˚F heat at a length proportional to the panel thickness (see equation below)
and bend to shape.
FINISHING
Gel coat finish is possible with minimal surface preparation.

This product not only offers exceptional adhesion performance after extended periods and exposure to high temperatures but also supports sustainability goals by reducing volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions compared to traditional solvent-based coating technologies and enabling the recyclability of the protective films as post-consumer waste."
All Versaflex PF formulations, including the latest series, eliminate the need for secondary coating and drying operations, avoiding using liquid solvents during manufacturing.
https://www.avient.com/knowledge-base/article/understanding-needs-and-challenges-photovoltaic-cable?pname[]=10755
The sheath layer should have good insulation properties which are challenging to achieve with low coating thickness containing flame retardants.
Producing a material that achieves all these at a thin coating thickness is a challenge.
