5-Layer Construction

Steel Armored Silicone Cable with Fiberglass Braiding (Multicore) – 180°C-Picture3

  1. Conductor:

    • Class 5 tinned copper strands (enhanced oxidation resistance)

  2. Core Insulation:

    • Silicone rubber (VDE-certified 2GI1 grade)

  3. Outer Sheath:

    • Silicone rubber (2GM1 grade, standard red-brown)

  4. Primary Armor:

    • Woven fiberglass braid (thermal barrier)

  5. Secondary Armor:

    • Galvanized steel wire braid (mechanical protection)
