EPR/EPDM/CPE/CSP/silicon polymer cables
Description
OverviewWe have a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility equipped with Niehoff multi-wire drawing machine, OTOMEC electroplating tinning, bunching m/c, CV lines, high-quality extruders, core stranding / laying machines and autoclaves, as well as all the necessary testing equipment. Application These cables are used in railways and industries like ship building, steel, cement, power, defence and mining. Characteristics APAR uses advanced electrom beam technology. We have in-house R&D facilities and compounding plants to process a range of compounds like VIR/TRS, EPDM, Silicone, CSP, PCP, NBR and EVA. Applicable standards IEC- 502, IS: 9968 (Part I) for LV cables, IS: 9968 (Part II) for MV cables, IS:14494 (1998) – trailing cables, RDSO Specs Naval NES / DEF Specs. IEC – 502 IEC – 60092 – 353 IEC – 60092 – 350, IEC – 60092 – 376 BS – 7919 VDE – 0298. Product range 0.5 to 500 sq mm in single core
Elastomeric compounds stay flexible across a wide temperature range and resist oil, ozone, abrasion and weathering - suited to industrial, mobile and outdoor equipment where PVC would harden or crack.

| Product range | 0.5 to 500 sq mm in single core & 0.5 to 400 sq mm up to 33 kV |
| Advantages | EPR/EPDM insulation is suitable for many higher voltage applications thanks to extra flexibility, reduced thermal expansion and low sensitivity to water treeing. Silicone rubber cables also have excellent flexibility. While silicone rubber insulation doesn’t offer the same mechanical toughness and cut-through resistance. |
