From monofilament to offshore piping, extrusion is our specialty

VESTAMID^® compounds can be processed on conventional three-zone screws with a minimum length of 24 D to produce profiles, tubing (including multilayer tubing), secondary fiber optic jacketing, cable sheathing, films, and sheets. Other screw designs, such as barrier screws, can also give good processing results. For best results, we recommend that you follow the extrusion instructions in the brochure for VESTAMID^® L-, D-, E- and Terra compounds.

Here you will find detailed information on

• drying,
• screw and extruder design,
• cleaning,
• pipe extrusion,
• extrusion of cable sheathing,
• extrusion of secondary fiber optic jacketing, and
• extrusion of films and sheets. 

Information on extruding pipes of a diameter greater than 40 mm is available from our experts in the market segment in question.
