| New Xtra-Guard 4 from Alpha Wire Alpha Wire Company has announced enhanced Xtra-Guard 4 cable capable of remaining flexible even at temperatures as low as -50°C. A jacket construction has just received UL approval and is pushing the boundaries for reliable cable performance in extreme cold environments. This latest revision of Xtra-Guard, with its jacket material has improved flexibility that means that the cable is easier to handle and route, making installation more efficient in terms of time and cost. Xtra-Guard 4 demonstrates high flexibility across the full operating temperature range +125°C to -50°C making it perfect for a variety of applications. Xtra-Guard 4 is suitable for construction equipment and vehicles. The enhanced Xtra-Guard 4 product can be used in applications where cables with more expensive thermosetting jackets are traditionally employed. Here, the high temperature rating of +125°C, which remains unchanged from the previous product, means that it can withstand the heat of an engine compartment and still operate in the bitterest cold, down to -50°C. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
