Application fit

Is C800 right for your machine?

C800 is engineered for compact spring-driven and extension cable reels where installation space is restricted, combining ultra-small outer diameters (5.7 to 12.9 mm) with a dual PVC sheath and integrated ripcord.

Motorised monospiral reel

Suitable

Primary duty: compact spring-driven and extension reels on hoists, transfer carts and workshop machinery up to 60 m/min.

Festoon & line chain

With conditions

Can be used on light indoor C-rail loops at ≥ 8 × D dynamic bending radius.

Use KYFLY for dedicated PVC festoons

Cylindrical / multi-layer drum

Not suitable

Not suitable for heavy motorized level-wind reels or deflecting pulleys without engineering review.

Use GPM-RF for heavy-duty PUR reels

Immersion & wet locations

Not suitable

FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

Why does C800 use a transparent PVC outer sheath with an integrated tear-up cord?

The transparent special PVC jacket allows maintenance teams to visually inspect the inner sheath and short-lay core bundle for twist or wear on spring reels, while the integrated ripcord lets installers strip the outer jacket cleanly without nicking the inner bedding.

Why does C800 include 2.0 mm² (3G2–6G2) and 3.0 mm² (4G3) cross-sections?

Following French NF C 32-090 compact spring-reel conventions, 2.0 mm² and 3.0 mm² intermediate cross-sections provide higher current capacity and lower voltage drop than 1.5 mm² or 2.5 mm² while keeping the cable outer diameter compact enough for small spring-reel drums.

What is the minimum spool diameter required for C800?

On a spring or extension reel drum, the minimum bending radius is 6 × outer diameter D (e.g., 48 mm radius / 96 mm drum barrel diameter for C800 4G2 with 8.0 mm OD). Over dynamic guiding rollers, allow at least 8 × D.

When should I step up from C800 to GPM or GPM-RF?

Choose C800 for indoor or sheltered spring-reel applications between -10 °C and +60 °C. Step up to halogen-free polyurethane GPM or GPM-RF when the reel operates down to -25 °C, faces heavy abrasion, or requires larger power cross-sections up to 185 mm².
