Advantages of cross-linked rubber cables
cross-linked rubber cables offer a combination of thermal resistance and mechanical flexibility that thermoplastic materials cannot provide within the same operating ranges:
- High-performance materials: EI5, EPR and SI-TECHPRENE rubber compounds operate from 90°C up to 150°C while retaining their mechanical properties, with excellent flexibility even at very low temperatures.
- Available IMQ-HAR certifications: Models such as H07Z-K, H05Z-K and others ensure compliance with European harmonised Standards, making these cables suitable for integration into certified products.
- Resistance to external agents: Cross-linked rubber compounds provide protection against atmospheric agents, ozone and oils, with specific versions for outdoor use and immersion
Production of cross-linked rubber cables
The production of Salcavi cross-linked rubber cables is supported by the SI Lab for the thermal characterisation of compounds (DSC) and the verification of the chemical-physical properties (IR), ensuring consistent performance across production batches. The product range includes materials developed in-house such as SI-TECHPRENE, which provides extended thermal performance up to 150°C in specific configurations.
Applications of cross-linked rubber cables: reference sectors
The cable assemblers and equipment manufacturers who choose this range operate in sectors where operating temperatures or environmental conditions exclude the use of standard PVC cables. The product range is suitable for special applications, high-temperature lighting systems, liquid immersion and marine applications, with IMQ-HAR certified versions available for integration into products intended for the European market.
