High-Voltage Continuous-Flex Flat Cable
- Use For: Automation, Continuous Motion
- Continuous Flex
- Temperature Range: -85° to 325° F
- Insulation: Silicone Rubber
A thick outer layer of silicone rubber insulation protects this cable from high voltages while remaining ultra flexible. You'll often see this cable used in harsh environments with tight turns, from robotics and aerospace to oil rigging, because it won't break down from chemicals, oil, moisture, or UV light. It stands up to continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission.
This cable meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance. If it is exposed to flames, it minimizes how much smoke and halogen it releases. It also meets clean room standards because it releases minimal particles into the air.
Bend radius is the point to which the cable will bend without being damaged. It is measured from the center of the bend to the edge of the cable. The smaller the measurement, the tighter the bend.

Communication and Security System Cable
Often used for intercoms, speakers, and security systems, this cable is designated as CM and CL2 or CMG, so the insulation is flame resistant and approved for in-wall installation in single-level facilities.
Shielded cable has a layer of foil that blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. It has an uninsulated ground wire is not counted in the number of wires.
- Use For: Buildings, Interference Shielding
- Flexible
- Temperature Range: 0° to 175° F
- Insulation: PVC Plastic
Ribbon Cable
- Use For: Automation, Data, Panel and Equipment (Hook-Up)
- Ultra Flexible
- Temperature Range: 0° to 175° F
- Insulation: PVC Plastic
Often used in electronic prototyping or in the interior of computers, this flat cable is ultra flexible with small-gauge wires so it fits in tight spaces. Unlike standard flat control cable, the wires are bonded together without an overall insulation, so they can be easily separated for installation. Cable is flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.
Continuous-Flex Data Communication Cable
- Use For: Automation, Continuous Motion, Data, Interference Shielding
- Continuous Flex
- Temperature Range:
PVC Plastic Insulation: 25° to 155° F
TPE Rubber Insulation: -30° to 210° F
Often used to send signal and data to order pickers and cranes, this cable withstands continuous motion applications without degrading data or signal transmission. In addition to a layer of braid shielding, it has twisted pairs of wires that cancel signal interference from multiple transmission lines. Suitable for clean rooms, it releases minimal particles into the air. It is CE marked as compliant with European health, safety, and environmental standards.
Cable with PVC insulation is for indoor use.
Data Communication Cable
- Use For: Data, Interference Shielding
- Flexible
- Temperature Range: 0° to 165° F
- Insulation: PVC Plastic
Use this cable for complex data and signal transmission, such as in high-speed computers. It has braid and foil shielding that provides excellent protection against signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. The industry designation is CM and CMG, so it’s approved for in-wall installation and has flame-resistant insulation. It has an uninsulated ground wire that is not counted in the number of wires.

Twisted-Pair Data Communication Cable
- Use For: Data, Interference Shielding
- Flexible
- Temperature Range: 0° to 165° F
- Insulation: PVC Plastic
This cable has twisted pairs of wires that cancel signal interference from multiple transmission lines, as well as foil and braid shielding over the entire cable. It's often used to transmit data in high speed computers near variable-frequency drive motors, where voltage fluctuations and current spikes can distort signals. The industry designation is CM and CMG, so it’s approved for in-wall installation and has flame-resistant insulation. The uninsulated ground wire is not counted in the number of wires.
