Synthetic Braided
A Leading Provider Of Specialty Thermocouple Wire, Cable And Connector Products
| Example Applications: Replacement for beaded thermocouples, heat treating, coke ovens, soaking pits, furnace survey thermocouples, brick & tile kilns, closed tubes or protective atmospheres, glass and ceramic manufacturing, metalworking plants Symbols: † = This product has a saturant on the singles and jacket ‡ = This product has a light saturant on the jacket to help prevent fraying |
||||||
CFCF: Highest temperature flexible insulation available. The braided yarn is a composition of the oxides of alumina, boric and silicone. Each conductor as well as the overall jacket are braided with this high temperature yarn to provide maximum flexibility at extremely high temperatures.
Abrasion Resistance - Poor Chemical Resistance - Fair Moisture Resistance - Poor Relative Cost - High |
||||||
MCFCF:This construction has a mica barrier tape applied to each single conductor prior to being insulated with the ceramic fiber yarns. The construction is identical to the CFCF construction except for the addition of a light jacket saturant and the mica tape, which protects against potential shorting from the black carbon residue which forms when the product is used in applications where the air supply is limited, such as thermocouples in protection tubes. The mica may also provide moisture protection during temperature cycling. 
Abrasion Resistance - Good Chemical Resistance - Fair Moisture Resistance - Good Relative Cost - Low |
||||||
RR: High temperature silica fibers are braided on the single conductors as well as the overall jacket. Because saturant is not used, this product is not recommended for abrasive applications. Each conductor as well as the overall jacket are braided with this high temperature yarn to provide maximum flexibility at extremely high temperatures. A tracer is braided into insulation for polarity and calibration identification.
Abrasion Resistance - Poor Chemical Resistance - Fair Moisture Resistance - Fair Relative Cost - High |
||||||
SFSF: Tough, heavy insulation for use where abrasion resistance on braided insulation is required. Conductors are insulated with a braided composite synthetic yarn* & impregnated with a color-coded moisture resistant saturant. The insulated conductors are laid parallel & insulated with a heavy yarn composite synthetic fiber jacket which is then coated with the same saturant.
Abrasion Resistance - Good Chemical Resistance - Fair Moisture Resistance - Fair Relative Cost - Medium |
