DuraFlex is a higher rated voltage version of the popular PowerFlex™ power cable with higher voltage ratings and similar flexibility. It is made with tinned copper wires and Thermo-Plastic Elastomer (TPE) jacket material. DuraFlex cable replaces rigid bus bars in many applications. Its extreme flexibility makes installation easy and eliminates mechanical misalignment with mating connectors such as power supply output terminals. It is ideal for tight-radius bends and industrial environments where movement, shock or vibration are present. DuraFlex and PowerFlex cables are preferred for fabricating FusionLug terminations. (see separate PowerFlex and FusionLug data sheets). |
