84-SWN-XXX is a copper-nickel coated polyester wrapped around polyurethane foam. Our standard polyester is rip-stop or taffeta weave and our standard coating is nickel copper. Other variations are available. A fire retardant thermoplastic foam comes as standard but other foams can be supplied on request.

We have a wide range of cross sections available including rectangular, D, L, P, square, circular, etc. Our standard product has a maximum length of 2 metres but rolls of product can be supplied, as can cut-to-length gaskets with mitre joints.
