Rubber Sheathed and Insulated Flexible Rubber Cable

Rubber sheathed cable insulation layer and sheath are often made of natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, ethylene-propylene rubber, etc. In addition to satisfying insulation properties and physical and mechanical properties, it also requires aging resistance and abrasion resistance. Some products require oil resistance and flame retardancy.

These cables are designed to provide high flexibility and have the capacity to withstand weather, oil/grease, mechanical and thermal stresses. Applications include handling equipment, mobile power supplies, worksites, stage and audio visual equipment. Also for use in drainage and water treatment, cold environments and severe industrial environments.
