Huber + Suhner has introduced a silicone-free anti-capillary cable to meet the increasing demand for barrier sealed copper cables across the automotive industry.
The anti-capillary characteristics of the cable stops liquids in the vehicle, such as oil and water, being conveyed through the cable and damaging the electronics and sensors at the connected end.
Inside the cable conductor, a grease-like filling material prevents the capillary effect in the core.
This filling material is silicone free and so not affected by transmission fluid.
The cable also features an electron-beam cross-linked insulating material making it particularly resistant to high and low temperatures, ozone, weathering and has excellent abrasion resistance.
Designated Radox, the anti-capillary cable is available with tinned or plain copper wires with diameters from 0.5 to 1.5 mm2.
It can be crimped or ultrasonically welded to connect it to the connector.
