National Wire & Cable Corporation manufactures a family of highly flexible miniature rough-usage low-voltage instrument control cable. These are available as cabled pairs or singles, with optional overall shield of foil with drain wire.
Conductors are stranded tinned copper with .011” wall of super-tough extruded polypropylene primary insulation, having excellent electrical properties. Wires are color coded using ten std. colors + stripes.
Conductors are planetary cabled and helically laid for optimum flexibility, with a barrier tape under braids, if used.
Shielded cables have 100% coverage aluminum-foil shield in contact with a stranded drain wire for easy termination. Optional tinned copper braid of >90% coverage per MIL-C-7078, with braid angles below 40° for easy pushback is available on special order.
Outer jacket is highly flexible poly-ether-urethane thermoplastic, very resistant to oils, fuels, flame, and UV. Polyurethane is noted for outstanding resistance to scuffing and tearing.
Standard cable has super-durable black polyurethane jacket, or may be supplied with blue outer jacket for use in “Intrinsically Safe” applications. (Ref. National Electric Code, Chapter 5, Section 504.)
Finished cable meets the UL Vertical Flame Test type VW-1 and CSA FT-1 flame test.
Finished cable is UL Recognized and meets all requirements of Appliance Wiring Material Style 20233 wich bears the agency intended-use of “External connection of electronic equipment.”
Widely used for molded-connector assemblies due to uniform controlled diameter.
All cables bear printed marks for UL rated voltage (300 V.), temperature (+80ºC), and flame resistance (UL VW-1). Available in other conductor counts, sizes, stranding, from 28 AWG through 10 AWG, and mixed AWG. Please consult factory.
