Description

Overview

It is accomplished by weaving together multiple Plain or Tinned Copper wire strands to achieve the desired braid coverage. A braided cable typically provides 80% coverage, but this can be adjustable to meet your specific needs. The design of the crossing, interwoven wires allows for bending and stretching of the braiding without buckling, folding or kinking. Application Designed for applications which are installed in occasional flexing and fixed locations. Cable applications include precision control sensors, pressure gauge, temperature controllers, control panels, vibration monitoring systems, intelligent security controllers, production machinery and much more. Characteristics Excellent EMI shielding and lightning protection; Resilient enough, and there is no difficulty with heat, Higher Durability, Excellent abrasion resistance. High Resistance to Molds, mildew, rot, and many chemica

A braided layer adds abrasion resistance and mechanical strength where cables are exposed, handled frequently or routed through tight spaces. Available across PVC, XLPE and elastomer insulations.
