About Wire and Cable

Use For: Automation, Continuous Motion
Continuous Flex
Temperature Range: -85° to 325° F
Insulation: Silicone Rubber

Rated to 17,000 volts AC or higher, this cable is often used in oil drilling, robotics, and festoon systems. It withstands continuous motion without degrading data or signal transmission. With a flat shape, it’s good for tight spaces. It meets UL 94 V-0 for flame retardance.

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.

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, they release minimal particles into the air. All are 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.
