Cover compounds

Cold-Resistant Covers

Special-property compounds formulated to retain flexibility and integrity at low ambient temperatures.

Product overview

Built around the duty.

Cold-resistant compounds are designed around the lowest ambient and start-up temperature, flexing frequency and expected exposure. The base carcass still determines strength and pulley behaviour; the cover compound protects flexibility and surface performance in cold service.
