Industrial Communication-Standard Cable
- Use For:
Flexible: Data, Interference Shielding
Continuous Flex: Data, Interference Shielding, Automation, Continuous Motion - Insulation: See Table
Connect devices such as sensors, programmable logic controllers, and actuators to an automated network. Choose the communication standard that matches your existing network.
Use continuous-flex cable in automated applications that require continuous motion, such as robotics.
Cable with TPE rubber outer insulation has a halogen-free protective layer that is more flexible and resists abrasion better than other materials. It also stands up to extreme temperatures and chemicals, making it good for use in harsh outdoor environments.
Double shielded cable has a layer of braid and foil shielding for better protection against signal interference than foil alone. Use it in environments with high signal distortion, such as near transformers, generators, and heavy duty motors.
Flame rated cable meets requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test. VW-1 cable is suspended vertically during testing.

Low-Smoke Flame-Retardant Heat-Shrink Tubing
- Material: Polyolefin Plastic
- Shrink Ratio: 3:1
- Dielectric Strength: 250 V/mil
- Shrink Temperature: 250° F
- Temperature Range: -65° to 230° F
- Specifications Met: MIL-C-24643
Also known as halogen-free tubing, this tubing meets MIL-C-24643 for minimal emission of smoke and gas if exposed to an open flame, so it can be used in enclosed areas such as ships and tunnels. It also has a flame-retardant additive that makes it combustion resistant and minimizes the spread of flames.
Dielectric strength is the maximum voltage a material can handle before it starts to breakdown.
