Covestro Cablelite® 950-706 Optical Fiber Coating (Matrix Coating), UV Cure (10 kg). (Ground Shipping Only)
Covestro Cablelite® 950-706 Optical Fiber Ribbon Matrix Coating, UV Cure (10 kg)
Part Number: COV-950-706-10KG
The Covestro Cablelite® 950-706 is a UV-curable matrix coating developed for the manufacture of optical fiber ribbons used in high-density telecommunications and data communication networks. Trusted by fiber optic cable manufacturers worldwide, this material delivers the processing consistency and mechanical performance required for modern ribbon cable production.
Formulated for efficient, high-speed manufacturing, Cablelite® 950-706 features a fast-curing chemistry and carefully balanced viscosity that promote uniform ribbon formation and stable production performance. The coating provides excellent fiber breakout characteristics, allowing individual fibers to be accessed more easily during splicing, termination, and network maintenance operations.
The versatility of 950-706 makes it suitable for a broad range of ribbon cable constructions, including traditional ribbon designs, subunit ribbon configurations, and loose-tube cable architectures. Its low sensitivity to moisture and dependable low-temperature performance help maintain cable reliability across diverse installation and operating environments.
Packaged in a 10 kg container, this coating is ideal for production-scale ribbon manufacturing operations requiring consistent quality and proven long-term performance.
