Are HYSF connectors resistant to Sunlight and UV Radiation?

Surface durability is just as important as subsea performance.

• UV Attack: UV rays break down the polymer chains in cheap rubber, leading to “crazing” (fine cracks) which eventually compromise the seal.
• Protection: The carbon black absorbs the UV radiation and dissipates it as heat, protecting the polymer matrix.
• Storage: While they are UV resistant, we still recommend covering unmated connectors with Dummy Plugs to keep the contact gold plating clean.
