Fleximining Tinned Copper Unshielded Binder Tape EPR CPE Type G GC Cable

About:

This cable is designed for heavy-duty applications, particularly in the mining industry. The 'Fleximining' designation suggests it is tailored for flexible use in harsh mining environments. It features tinned copper conductors, known for their corrosion resistance and good conductivity. The cable is unshielded but includes a binder tape, which helps maintain its structural integrity. Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) is used for insulation, and Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) for the outer jacket. The 'Type G GC' indicates that it is suitable for use in both ground and ground-check applications.

Also Known As:

This cable might be referred to as a mining-grade flexible power cable, tinned copper mining cable, EPR insulated CPE jacketed cable, or Type G GC mining cable.

Application:

These power cables are designed for use on AC off track equipment, miners, shuttle cars, cutting machines, drills, conveyors, pumps, epen pit strip and deep mines, for applications requiring a ground check conductor for added safety. Suitable for other industrial and mining applications.
