What's special about this line of economical PVC control cables?

  • Durable and resistant construction withstands the constant friction and abuse associated with moving machinery or cable/hose carrier systems, while remaining affordable enough for budgeted applications.
  • Braided conductors are layered in short pitches around a high tensile strength strain-relief core, providing extremely low torsion and greatly reducing stress when subjected to fast paced flexing and motion.
  • Available in a large range of AWG and conductor combinations that are cЯUus and CE rated for meeting building, equipment, or safety requirements.

  • RoHS CompliantCEULCSA ApprovedUL Recognized Component Mark

Today’s hard working and fast paced robotics, computerized tools, and automated machinery require strong and highly flexible cabling. Other brands of control cables can be very expensive to purchase yet still have the disadvantages of being prone to breakdowns, the the quick deterioration under the constant stress and friction. IGUS®, a world leader in moving cable management, introduced their new line of Chainflex® cables specially designed to withstand the grueling rigors of today’s heavy machinery. The Chainflex® CF5 line of economy PVC Control Cables offer installers and machine operators with an affordable wiring solution that is abrasion-resistant, oil-resistant, UV-resistant and flame-retardant.

All Cuts Under 200 FEET in length are Non-Returnable / Non-Refundable

  • Finely stranded conductors are made from bend-resistant bare copper wires in accordance with EN 60228, for providing excellent performance in high mechanical load requirements.
  • Individual conductors are coated in a high-quality, mechanical grade PVC-insulating compound to protect bare copper from corrosion prior to installation and reducing crosstalk after termination.
  • Durable outer jacket is made from an oil-resistant, PVC-based blend that has been adapted to the rigors and frictions found inside cable/hose carrier systems.
  • Outer jacket is Silicon-free in compliance with PV 3.10.7 – status 1992.
  • Flame rating FT1
  • RoHS compliant
  • cRUus rated
  • CE rated
  •  

    Versatile construction is ideal for a wide range of applications:

  • Light oil influence
