Trailing & towing
Heavy construction site power leads, mobile compressors, generators and workshop machinery dragged over rough concrete or gravel.
Product
Heavy-duty 450/750 V flexible power and control cable to EN 50525-2-21 combining +90 °C cross-linked EI7 EPR core insulation with an abrasion-, cut-, oil- and −40 °C cold-resistant TMPU polyurethane outer jacket for construction plant and workshops.
Typical values for this cable type, based on EN 50525-2-21 (HD 22.10) — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
H07BQ-F is selected where standard H07RN-F chloroprene jackets suffer rapid wear from sharp gravel, metal swarf, aggressive cutting oils or sub-zero flexing down to −40 °C.
Heavy construction site power leads, mobile compressors, generators and workshop machinery dragged over rough concrete or gravel.
Round cable loops on crane festoon trolleys and hoist power feeds indoors and outdoors.
Up to 0.6/1 kV when installed in protected conduits, trays or crane switchgear.
Suitable for hand-wound and light spring reels; for high-tension motorised reels, use reinforced S07BQ-F.
