Power Liftgate Anti-Pinch Sensors

A conductive grade of TPV is used for the first time in power lift gate anti-pinch sensors.  The co-extruded TPV material, with a wire core inner, replaced thermoset EPDM rubber, which tends to harden over time as well as exhibit surface blooming, chalking, and cracking.  The TPV solution offers superior long-term surface aesthetics while meeting flexibility and performance requirements.
