- Designed for continuous flexing applications
- 0.5 mm2 to 2.5 mm2 (20 AWG to 14 AWG)
- 3 to 25 conductors including ground
- Unshielded (CF5 series) or shielded (CF6 series) conductors
- Cables are flame retardant and resistant to sunlight and oil penetration
- Strip cables 50% faster with inner/outer cable jacket tear strips
igus CF5 and CF6 multi-conductor control cables are specifically designed, tested, and manufactured for continuous flexing, high mechanical load application requirements, and will provide a guaranteed service life between 5 million and 10 million cycles when operated within specified conditions.
Chainflex® cables from igus are available with 3 to 25 unshielded (CF5 series) or 4 to 12 shielded (CF6 series) conductors in 20 AWG to 14 AWG sizes.
- Individual conductors are bare copper and stranded for flexing applications. Conductor insulation is high-quality black TPE mixture for 20AWG and black PVC mixture for 18 through 14 AWG.
- Individual conductors are marked with white numbers for easy identification and a ground conductor with green-yellow insulation is included in each cable.
- Cable outer jackets are a low-adhesion pressure extruded PVC mixture that is resistant to sunlight, oil penetration, and is flame retardant.
- Chainflex cables have a unique tear strip underneath the outer jacket (unshielded) or underneath the inner jacket (shielded). The jacket can be opened like a zipper to the desired length by pulling on the special tear strip and the outer jacket/inner jacket removed from conductors.
Applications - Flexing versus Flexible
- Continuous Flexing Cables: Cables designed to be exposed
to constant flexing during their operation & withstand millions
of these flex cycles.
- Flexible Cables: Cables designed to be bent and routed in an
installation then remain static. Think of this as "bendability".
