High Temperature Cables

SiHF-GLP - Silicone Multi-Core Overall Stainless Steel Braid

Product application:

SiHF-GLP is a special 180 Degree C. silicone multi-core cable with an overall steel braid for use in high and low

temperature areas or whenever the insulation is subject to extreme temperature changes.  These cables are

mainly found in steel producing industry and aviation industry as well as in ship building, cement, glass and

ceramic factories.  SIHF-GLP cables are low-smoke and halogen-free especially suited for use in power stations.

  The silicone jacket provides added heat, chemical, oil and acidic resistance.  The external galvanized steel braid

ensures excellent mechanical protection and disturbance-free transmissions of signals and impulses. Not

permitted for outdoor use.

Properties

Advantages

Hardly changes of dielectric strength and the insulation resistance also at high temperatures, high ignition or

flash point, in case of fire, forms an insulating layer of SiO2

Resistant to

High molecular oils, fats from vegetables and animals, alcohols, plasticizers and clophenes, diluted acids, lye and

salt dissolution, oxidation substances, tropical influences and weather, lake water, oxygen

Halogen-free

According to DIN VDE 0482 part 267/ EN 50267-2-2/ IEC 60754-2 (equivalent DIN VDE 0472 part 813)

Behavior in fire

No flame propagation

Test according to DIN VDE 0482 part 265-2-1/ EN 50265-2-1/ IEC 60332-1 (equivalent DIN VDE 0472 part 804

test method B)

For laying as a fixed installation only in open or ventilated pipe systems as well as in ducts. Otherwise the

mechanical properties of the silicon are reduced by the enclosed air at temperatures exceeding 90°C
