Furnace, kiln & high-temp zone
Withstands +250 °C continuous ambient heat and +350 °C radiant splash around continuous casters, quench tanks, and die-casting machines.
Product
FLAME ARREST LT liquid-tight high-temperature multicore cable combining Class 5 nickel- or tinned-copper conductors, FEP/PFA fluoropolymer core insulation, reinforcing E-glass braid, and a continuous liquid-tight outer jacket for +250 °C wet zones.
Typical values for this cable type, based on UL 758 / EN 50525-2-83 / IEC 60332-1-2 — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Specify FLAME ARREST LT where high-temperature cables are simultaneously exposed to cutting fluids, hydraulic oil, quench water, or steam that would wick into open glass-braided cables.
Withstands +250 °C continuous ambient heat and +350 °C radiant splash around continuous casters, quench tanks, and die-casting machines.
Continuous extruded outer jacket over the internal E-glass braid blocks wicking of quench water, glycol, steam, and caustic washdown.
Seals cleanly inside standard liquid-tight compression cable glands (IP67 / IP68) unlike porous outer fibreglass braids.
Designed for fixed and flexing machine drops in wet hot zones; use NSHTÖU or RXP for heavy crane drum reeling.
Use NSHTÖU for drum reelingConstruction
Five-stage liquid-tight high-temp build: Class 5 Ni-Cu/Sn-Cu conductors, FEP/PFA core insulation, PTFE barrier tape, internal E-glass braid, and extruded liquid-tight outer sheath.
| # | Layer | Material & reference |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fine-stranded Ni-Cu / Sn-Cu conductor | Nickel-plated or tinned annealed copper (IEC 60228 Class 5)Resists thermal oxidation and vibration fatigue on hot processing machinery |
| 2 | Fluoropolymer (FEP / PFA) core wall | Extruded FEP or PFA fluoropolymer core insulationChemically inert to hydraulic oils, synthetic esters, steam, and solvents at +250 °C |
| 3 | PTFE / polyimide barrier wrap | Overlapping sintered PTFE moisture and thermal barrier tapeMaintains core bundle geometry and adds secondary dielectric protection |
| 4 | Internal E-glass anti-cut reinforcement | High-tensile braided E-glass fibre reinforcement embedded under the sheathProvides mechanical cut-through and impact resistance without exposed wicking fibres |
| 5 | Extruded liquid-tight outer jacket | Continuous high-temperature fluoroelastomer (FKM) / tear-resistant silicone jacketProvides a smooth 360° gland-sealing surface impervious to oils, coolants, and steam |
