| Compounds: HiTemp Filler Compound |
|
| HiTemp ACA Filler Compound (AFCHT) is the recommended filler for compression fittings due to its ability to improve the mechanical holding strength and conductivity of the connection. It has been designed to withstand the increased temperatures of ACSS and ACSS/TW conductors. Kept in a dry place, AFCHT has an infinite shelf life. |

Features:
Wide Temperature Tolerance
AFCHT has a wide temperature tolerance. It is workable at low temperatures and does not drip at high temperatures. It has a melting point above 250ºC (482ºF).
Improves Holding Strength and Conductivity
AFCHT contains hard metallic and non-metallic particles, otherwise known as ‘grit’. During compression, the compound grit is embedded between the conductor and the accessory, creating an irregular surface. This irregular surface has two features: (1) increases the holding strength when tension is applied and (2) improves conductivity by forming a bare metal to metal connection.
Moisture Resistant
As the accessory is compressed, AFCHT is forced between the conductor strands, sealing out the harmful effects of air and water.
Fits Standard Caulking Gun
For easy filling of compression accessories, AFCHT is available in a tube that fits a standard caulking gun.
Application:
Filler Compound for compression accessories installed on conductors operating at temperatures up to 482ºF (250ºC). (Compression accessories includes: dead ends, joints, terminals and jumper connectors)
