Disposable Cables

By definition, disposable cables are intended for one time or limited use. Minimizing cost, while performing its intended function is of primary importance. PVC and PE are the insulations most commonly used. Conductors are generally bare or tinned copper. Shields when needed are spiral or aluminized mylar. These cables may be gamma radiation sterilized.

Reusable Cables

Reusable medical cables are built to endure constant flexing and extended cycles of sterilization. Insulations may be Teflon®, TPE or silicone rubber with TPR or silicone jackets.
