Construction Options 

PENDFLEX cables are designed and manufactured in a variety of alternative constructions for specific applications. 

Options include:

• Shielded components
• Overall shields
• Composite conductors
• Available without strain relief

Design Parameters

Conductors: The conductors are made from extra-flexible, soft-annealed, bunch-stranded bare copper (Class M). This design provides extreme flexibility and complies with ASTM standards B3 and B174.

Insulation: The insulation is color-coded, high-quality, glossy, and smooth polyvinyl chloride (PVC), rated for 90°C, and meets UL-62 and CSA C22.2 No. 49 standards. This insulation enables easy identification of conductors, offers outstanding flexibility, and has excellent physical and electrical properties.

Cabling: The conductors are cabled with an overall binder that is helically applied, ensuring exceptional performance even under severe flexing. 

Strain Relief: The design includes two 1/16” (1.6 mm) galvanized steel supports that are extruded with the jacket for added durability.

Jacket: The cable is available in stock with a glossy, vibrant yellow polyvinyl chloride jacket, in compliance with UL-62 and CSA C22.4 No. 49 standards. This jacket enhances safety visibility, outstanding flexibility, and abrasion resistance.
