Shielded, continuous bending highly flexible PVC power cables: LIFE-LINE Power 400 C.

Proven PVC power cables now available with optimised PP-core insulation.



New with optimised, PP core insulation with extreme bending strength for long-term stress.

 HIGHLIGHTS:
  • optimised tension-proof center element
  • new core insulation for smaller cable diameters and smaller bend radii
  • pressure-extruded valley sealed filling inner jacket material
  • continuous bending hi-flex braided tin-plated copper shield designed for smallest bend radii
  • optimised gliding KS PVC outer jacket, pressure-extruded UV-stable, very abrasion-resistant
  • co-extruded Color Identification based on DESINA color code



LIFE-LINE Control 400 Standard PLUS

  • oil-resistant
  • UV-resistant
  • CFC-free
  • flame-retardant
  • silicone-free
  • RoHS-compliant
