Igus 'Chainflex' Cables CF77 and CF78
The new oil-resistant “Chainflex” cables CF77 and CF78 from Igus have been developed for dynamic applications with high cycle rates under high loads. The new family now unites nine advantages of several tried and trusted “Chainflex” cable series into a single design. With over 850 cables, Igus currently has the most extensive range of energy chain applications to date, but at the same time wants to make cable selection easier.
This is especially important when considering international standards, material approvals and service lives. CF77 and CF78 are twisted in layers for 7 or less wires (nominal voltage U0/U 300/500 Volt) and stranded in bundles for 12 or more wires (U0/U 300/300 Volt). The cables are stranded in bundles around a strong tensile rope core to avoid corkscrews and broken cores. Yet the outer diameter of the control cables is just as slim as comparable types that are only stranded in layers. The highly abrasion- and bend-resistant outer sheath, which is made of PUR extruded under pressure into all the gaps and gussets of the cable, ensures additional stability and is flame-retardant as well as halogen-free.
