we strictly use it in conjunction with smartcoils. it cannot be used alone, as it collapse too easily.

in such configuration, we have excellent bending radius, better than vinyl I'd say.. the only problem of Norprene is that it costs 10x vinyl.

but in my book, peace of mind primes. by the way, we have performed tests on this over extended periods of time: two exact same loops, one with vinyl, and one with norprene running side by side for 10 months now. results validate the specification data. I have upgraded all my systems to Norprene now, servers, etc...

no one probably noticed (or added 2+2) but that's the reason why we claim such low maintenance in the Quiet P180 ;-)
