FIT® Wire Management
Lacing Tape
A-A-52080 Type 1
High tensile strength
Good chemical resistance
Excellent abrasion resistance
Excellent knot retention
See table for specications.
Finishes
A. Natural, No finish
B. Wax: A microcrystalline wax
with a melting point above 5C
compounded with a fungicide that
does not contain either copper or
mercuric materials. Excellent knot
retention, yet thenish does not
have too great a “waxy” feel to the
user. Microcrystalline wax is soft,
pliable, and easy to tie.
C. Synthetic Rubber or Elastomer:
A special continuous coating
of fungistatic synthetic rubber
containing no corrosive
compounding ingredients. Knots
tied with this finish will not slip.
This finish will not flake or dust.
D: Glass/TFE:
The glass/TFE combination has
excellent tensile strength and
abrasion resistance. Also resists
fungus, acids andames.
E. Synthetic Resin or Vinyl:
A thermoplastic synthetic resin with
a melting point above 177°C for use
where a “wax freetype is specified.
It is a non-dusting or aking, dry
nish with good knot tying qualities.
