Product Information

Specification

About:

• This type of cable is designed for use in welding applications, featuring flexibility, durability, and resistance to harsh conditions. The cable's construction includes a tinned or coated copper conductor, EPR insulation, and a HOFR sheath, making it suitable for various industrial environments.

Also Known As:

• Welding Cable
• Flexible Welding Cable
• Tinned Welding Cable
• HOFR Welding Cable

Application:

• Primary use is for the secondary (high current) connection to automatic or hand-held metal arc welding electrodes. May also be used for non-welding applications such as earth/return leads, flexible tails on power supplies, busbar connections, etc.

Standard:

• IEC 60245: Rubber insulated cables - Rated voltages up to and including 450/750 V
• BS 638: Specification for rubber-covered flexible cables for electricity supply
• VDE 0282: Cables of rated voltages up to 450/750 V and having thermoplastic insulation
• EN 50525: Electric cables - Low voltage energy cables of rated voltages up to and including 450/750 V

Construction:

•  In accordance with BS638 Part 4
• Flexible Class 6 copper (plain/tinned) conductors to BS EN 60228
• Paper or p.e.t.p. tape separator
• Conductor: Plain Flexible Class 5 conductors to BS EN 60228
• Insulation: May be single or dual layer 0361TQ Dual layer insulation EPR inner layer HOFR outer layer
• Temperature Rating: : 85°C maximum conductor operating temperature. Minimum handling temperature: -20°C
• Voltage Rating: 100 V rating when used for welding purposes. For non-welding applications, cables may be used at voltages up to and including 450 Vrms phase – phase provided that the cables are adequately protected from damage to the insulation e.g. in panels etc.

Features:

• Flexibility: Highly flexible, allowing for easy maneuvering in tight spaces and resistance to bending fatigue.
• Durability: Resistant to oils, solvents, and mechanical abrasion, making it suitable for harsh environments.
• Heat Resistance: Can withstand high temperatures due to its EPR insulation and HOFR sheath.
• Flame Retardant: Designed to resist the spread of fire, enhancing safety in its applications.
• Weather Resistant: Suitable for outdoor use, resistant to UV and ozone.
