Application
Flexible power cables based on vulcanized rubber, rated for 450/750 V. Suitable for diverse environments depending on the specific construction grade:
- Light-Duty (Dry areas): Household appliances (vacuums, irons), kitchen equipment, office machines, and hand tools.
- Medium & Heavy-Duty (Indoor/Outdoor/Wet): Industrial plants, construction sites, agricultural machines, power tools (drills, saws), and heating equipment.
- Specialized/Flexible: Welding machine electrodes, automotive industry, shipbuilding, transport/conveyor systems, and robotics.
Construction
- Conductor: Bare or tinned copper, flexible Class 5.
- Separator: Polyester tape (optional).
- Insulation: Silicone rubber, Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), or equivalent materials.
- Filler: Rubber compound (cross-linked or uncross-linked), synthetic textiles, or paper.
- Outer Sheath: Cross-linked rubber or equivalent synthetic elastomer.
