Finding compounds online
The Xiameter brand has launched a series of standard high-consistency rubber (HCR)
compounds for customers in North America and Europe, allowing users to buy standard
HCR compounds for high-voltage insulation, wire and cable applications without added
customisation costs and product development delays.
Shelley Bausch, Xiameter vice president and executive director explained: “Most
compounds on the market today are highly customised, so we’ve decided to offer a set
product line of standard HCR compounds so that customers can choose the preform,
durometer range, cure system, and standard colour they need.”
An online selector guide has been developed by the Xiameter team, to help compound
customers identify the exact compound needed for a specific application.
Customers get the HCR compound at market-based prices, delivered where and when
they need it.
