Braided Cables

Due to insufficient mechanical strength, traditional cables often fail in environments with high abrasion, tension, and impact. Our braided cables incorporate high-tensile strength materials like stainless steel and Kevlar or high-performance thermoplastics like PTFE and FEP. The braided structure is a protective sheath that prevents mechanical deformation, safeguarding the internal conductors from physical damage.

Conductor Material

High-conductivity copper (99.9% pure), tinned copper for corrosion resistance, or aluminum for weight-sensitive applications.

Insulation Material

Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), ethylene propylene rubber (EPR), or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)

Voltage Rating

Up to 600V for low-voltage applications; available in higher voltage grades (1kV to 10kV)

Temperature Range

-80°C to +260°C for extreme environments; special insulation

Fire Resistance

Flame-retardant, low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) options; IEC 60332-1 compliant

Product Description

Braided cables are engineered with superior flexural properties, ensuring they withstand millions of flex cycles without degradation. The braid distributes mechanical stress across the surface, reducing strain on internal conductors and insulation. This ensures that the cables maintain their integrity and performance over time, even in applications requiring tight-bend radii (such as aerospace wiring or complex machinery).

Water Resistance

IP68-rated for complete immersion protection; water-blocking compounds

UV Resistance

UV-stabilized materials, such as polyethylene or thermoplastic elastomers (TPE)

Cross-sectional Area

Available in sizes ranging from 0.5 mm² to 240 mm², customizable based on current requirements and application.

Sheath Material

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyurethane (PUR), or polyethylene (PE)

Armoring

Galvanized steel wire armoring (SWA) or aluminum wire armoring (AWA)

Current-Carrying Capacity

Dependent on cross-sectional area; for instance, 25 mm² cable rated for 146A at 90°C operating temperature.

Flexibility

Designed for continuous flexing applications; typically tested for up to 10 million flex cycles without failure in dynamic installations.

Cable Size

Core configurations from 2 to 24 cores.

Outer Diameter

Range from 5 mm to 50 mm depending on conductor size, insulation, and armoring

Mechanical Protection

Braided sheath or armor provides tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and impact protection

Standards Compliance

IEC 60502, EN 50288, UL 1581, and MIL-SPEC standards;

Technical Advantages

Exposure to extreme temperatures, whether hot or cold, can degrade cable performance and compromise insulation integrity. Our braided cables are designed for high thermal stability, utilizing high-performance materials such as PTFE, silicone, or fluoropolymer-based braids. These materials ensure our cables maintain electrical and mechanical performance even when exposed to temperatures ranging from -80°C to +260°C. This makes them suitable for applications in aerospace, oil and gas, and automotive sectors where temperature fluctuations are significant.

The braided outer layer of our cables serves as a highly durable, abrasion-resistant barrier, protecting the internal insulation and conductors from external mechanical wear. Constructed from nylon, aramid fibers, or metallic alloys, our braided cables offer superior cut-through resistance, ensuring a significantly longer operational lifespan than non-braided alternatives.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

What materials are used in braided cables, and how do they affect performance?

Braided cables are often made from nylon, polyester, or other synthetic fibers. These materials make the cables strong and flexible. Nylon, for example, is resistant to abrasion and can protect the wires inside from damage. The choice of material can impact the cable’s durability, resistance to heat, and overall performance in different environments.

How does the braiding pattern influence the cable's signal integrity?

The braiding pattern affects how well the cable transmits signals. A tighter braid can reduce interference and improve signal quality by shielding the wires from external electromagnetic fields. Different patterns, such as spiral or diamond, can enhance flexibility or strength, which also plays a role in maintaining signal integrity during use.

Can braided cables handle higher current loads compared to non-braided cables?

Braided cables can often handle higher current loads due to their increased surface area and better heat dissipation. The braiding helps to distribute the electrical load more evenly, reducing the risk of overheating. However, choosing a braided cable rated for the specific current requirements is essential to ensure safety and performance.

What advantages do braided cables offer for outdoor applications?

Braided cables provide several advantages for outdoor use. The outer braid protects against UV rays, moisture, and mechanical stress, making it suitable for harsh environments. This protection helps prevent degradation over time, ensuring the cable remains functional and reliable, even when exposed to rain, sun, or extreme temperatures.

How does the flexibility of braided cables affect installation and use in tight spaces?

Braided cables are generally more flexible than standard cables, allowing them to bend and twist without breaking. This flexibility makes installing them easier in tight spaces, such as behind equipment or complex setups. Their ability to bend without kinking means they can fit into various configurations while maintaining performance and durability.
