Self-supporting pendant & push-button drop
Lightweight screened spiral cord for handheld CNC MPG handwheels, robot teach pendants and operator panels.
Product
Retractable EMC-screened coiled signal and instrumentation cable (0.14–0.50 mm²) featuring superfine Class 6 copper conductors, high-rebound TPE-E core insulation, ≥ 85 % tinned copper spiral D-screen and halogen-free PUR jacket for teach pendants and sensors.
Typical values for this cable type, based on DIN VDE 0812 / DIN EN 50363-10-2 — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
Designed for handheld CNC teach pendants, mobile barcode/vision scanners, medical diagnostic carts, and linear displacement sensors requiring shielded retractable cords.
Lightweight screened spiral cord for handheld CNC MPG handwheels, robot teach pendants and operator panels.
Retracts cleanly on vertical load-cell booms, weighing platforms and automated test probes.
200 mm straight ends terminate directly into circular M12/Sub-D connectors or cabinet EMC glands.
Use Screened PUR Chain CableCoiled spiral geometry cannot be installed inside enclosed energy chains.

Shown: SPIRAL-PUR-C 7×0.25 screened coiled signal cable with DIN 47100 colour-coded TPE-E cores, PTFE sliding wrap, helical tinned copper D-screen and silver-grey RAL 7001 PUR jacket.
| # | Layer | Material & reference |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Superfine signal conductor | Bare or tinned copper, superfine strands (IEC 60228 Class 6)Low bending stiffness for light pull force on handheld devices |
| 2 | High-modulus TPE-E insulation | Thermoplastic polyester elastomer (TPE-E), colour-coded per DIN 47100Provides low capacitance (≈ 70 pF/m) and elastic coil rebound |
| 3 | PTFE anti-friction wrap | Low-friction fluoropolymer / non-woven tape over laid-up signal bundlePrevents core-to-screen friction during coil extension |
| 4 | Helical tinned copper D-screen | Torsion-compensated spiral tinned copper wire shield (≥ 85 % optical coverage)Unlike a rigid cross-braid, a helical D-screen winds with the spiral coil without kinking |
| 5 | High-memory PUR outer sheath | Halogen-free polyether polyurethane (TMPU), silver-grey RAL 7001 or matte black RAL 9005DIN EN 50363-10-2 · resists skin oils, disinfectants, coolants and floor abrasion |
2 to 18 colour-coded signal cores (0.14–0.50 mm²) inside an overall helical tinned copper D-screen
Twisted differential pairs (2×2×0.14 to 6×2×0.25) with overall D-screen for RS-422/RS-485 handwheels and encoders
