Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene

A resin used for a wide range of demanding cable applications, FEP is similar to polytetrafluoroethylene but has a melting point about 50°C lower and slightly different physical properties. It is more easily processed than PTFE. Heat resistance and chemical inertness are outstanding. Foamed FEP with a dielectric constant of about 1.6 is also used.
