Optical Fiber Protective Tubing

Nirei manufactures protective tubing for optical fibers using polyester elastomers (Hytrel®). Manufacturing of tubing dimensions at optional sizes is also possible. Grades include general types and flame retardant types. In addition, it is also possible to add color for identification purposes, and Nirei offers a lineup of various colors for color batches.
Since it is possible to use other materials apart from those mentioned above for manufacture, please contact Nirei for more information. (For example, materials that slide easily to enable wire threading work, and fire retardant or non-halogen materials, etc.)
