Cable and wire

Our silicones are suitable for a wide range of applications including power cabling, data cabling, control cabling, instrumentation cabling and accessories.

The mineral make-up of silicone makes the material uniquely suitable for fire-resistant cables, which have to maintain circuit integrity if a fire breaks out. For fire-resistant cabling, we deposit a film of fused silicone on to the conductor, providing substantial insulation properties. We can also enhance further the strength of the fused silicone through the application of special additives.
