US Patent:

7247266, Jul 24, 2007

Filed:

Apr 9, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/410616

Inventors:

John P. Bolcar - Bangor PA, US

Assignee:

Thomas & Betts International Inc. - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

B29C 41/02
B29C 41/22

US Classification:

264130, 264255, 26427211

Abstract:

This invention relates to a method for coating an elastomeric component with a coating that has a low coefficient of friction and the articles formed by the method. The method includes preparing an elastomeric coating; applying the coating to a substrate; contacting the coated substrate with an elastomeric compound; and heating the elastomeric compound and the coated substrate under pressure to bond the coating to the elastomeric compound and form a coated elastomeric component.

Inventors:

John Bolcar - Bangor PA, US

Assignee:

Thomas & Betts International, Inc.

International Classification:

H01R009/03

US Classification:

439/610000

Abstract:

A method is provided for manufacturing a semiconductive insulating shield for an electrical cable accessory. The method includes providing a substrate having a desired contour in relation to the electrical cable accessory. The substrate is then coated with an elastomeric semiconductive material to form a coated substrate. An elastomeric insulating dielectric material is then molded around the coated substrate, and the elastomeric semiconductive material and elastomeric insulating dielectric material are cured by applying heat and pressure sufficient to transfer the elastomeric semiconductive material to the elastomeric insulating dielectric material by chemical bonding.
