Application

Cable designed for inner and outdoor application, resistant to oils, moisture, water, UV-irradiation, cold etc. Specially designed for frequent and strong bending in one plane, with small bending radius, which gives him exceptional flexibility and enables a very good space utilization. Used as supply cable and signalling cable for medium mechanical loads, for connection of mobile parts of machines, conveyors and linearly shifted massive equipment segments, specially for cranes, elevators, floor assembly lines and similar. Advantages over round cables: permitted exceptionally small bending radius, high flexibility, good space utilization and “packing” possibility, i.e. group bending.
