Cicoil Flat Cable in Harsh Environments
Cicoil’s exclusive, patented extrusion process in combination with our patented Flexx-Sil™ jacketing is at the heart of manufacturing extreme environment flat cables that retain electrical properties and flexibility over a long life.
Low Temperature Flat Cables
Temperature to: -104°C (-155°F). Cicoil Flexx-Sil™ jacketed cable exceeds the low temperature capability of typical PVC jacketed cables and even specialized PTFE jacketed cables.
High Temperature Flat Cables
Temperature to +260°C (+500°F). Cicoil Flexx-Sil™ jacketed cable exceeds the high temperature capability of typical PVC jacketed cables and even specialized PTFE jacketed cable.
Waterproof
Cicoil Flexx-Sil™ cable jacketing produces waterproof flat cables and flat cable assembly products. It enjoys inherent water repelling characteristics and produces superior water resistant cables. Cicoil waterproof cables are impervious to immersion, high humidity, fungus, and damp operating environments, making our cables ideal for washdown, autoclave, and other wet applications.
Ultraviolet & Ozone
Our patented Flexx-Sil™ formulation enables ultraviolet resistant cables that withstand exposure to high levels of radiation and ozone with no adverse effects. Cicoil flat cables and flat cable assemblies will perform well even after 50+ years in direct sunlight.
Low Humidity
Neither extremely dry conditions nor low humidity will adversely affect either the flexibility or life of the Flexx-Sil™ jacketing on Cicoil flat cables and cable assemblies in any way.
Saltwater Exposure
Saltwater resistant cables Cicoil Flexx-Sil™ flat cable suffers no degradation from the corrosive effects of salt spray or seawater exposure, meeting all applicable specifications for shipboard use and marine environments.
Cleanroom Use
Cicoil flexible flat cable is non-particulating, and is suitable for Class 1 clean room and vacuum environments. View Tech Sheet»
