SuperFlex Wire & Cable
Calmont has some overstock in finished Superflex Single Conductor Wires Click here for more information
SuperFlex wire and cable was pioneered and developed by Calmont for the exacting commercial and military markets. Specially compounded and plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulations applied over ultra-fine stranded wire yield a finished SuperFlex wire with a longer flex life and a higher flexure index level than attainable with ordinary PVC insulated wire.
SuperFlex wire and cable construction is available with a Nylon jacket or insulation replacement for standard PVC, providing increased impact and tensile strength.
SuperFlex wire and custom cable insulated with polyethylene is also available. Polyethylene offers good electrical properties at low cost. The dielectric constant of 2.3 and dissipation factor of 0.0002 are stable from 60 Hz to 106 MHz.
