UL 4535 Certified Silicone Rubber Cable | 600V Shielded High-Temp Cable for Harsh Industrial Environments

UL 4535 Certified Silicone Rubber Cable | 600V Shielded High-Temp Cable for Harsh Industrial Environments

Product Overview

The UL 4535 Silicone Rubber Cable is engineered for extreme industrial applications requiring EMI protection, saltwater resistance, and sustained operation up to 200°C. Featuring a tinned copper braid shield and dual-layer silicone construction, this cable delivers superior performance in foundries, steel mills, and high-heat processes where standard cables fail. UL AWM 4535 certified for North American markets.

Material Advantages vs. Standard Cables

Property UL 4535 Cable Standard Cable
Heat Resistance ✅ 200°C continuous ❌ Typically 90-125°C
Shielding ✅ Tinned copper braid (EMI proof) ❌ Often unshielded
Saltwater Res. ✅ No corrosion degradation ❌ Rapid corrosion
Flexibility ✅ Maintains pliability at -60°C ❌ Brittle below 0°C

Target Applications

Critical Industries:

  • Steel Mills: Ladle cranes, furnace wiring

  • Foundries: Molten metal handling systems
