Properties | ·Resistant to: ozone, oxygen, weathering effects, alcohols, dilute acids, alkalis, saline solutions, oxidising agents, high molecular weight oils, vegetable and animal fats, plasticisers and clophen, seawater·Halogen-free·High flash point·Leaves an insulating layer of SiO2 when exposed to flames
·No significant changes in dielectric strength and insulation resistance even at higher temperatures |
| Application | UL-approved silicone cable, developed for export-oriented machine builders, particularly for USA and Canada. Silicone cables are halogen-free and are especially suited for installation in power stations, iron, steel and rolling mills, in solariums, sauna facilities, foundries, in the aviation industry, ship building, as well as in ceramic, glass and cement factories. Due to the elastic properties of the core insulation, this silicone cable is ideally suitable as a flexible connection cable. An interference-free transmission of signals and pulse is assured by the high screening density. |
