TRA & TRA-RF
Flexible cables for reeling applications - Heavy duty operations - 0.6 / 1 kV
All the very stringent characteristics of the insulating cover and the
sheath make the cable suitable for use with reeling systems such as
6 power supply of moving machines. In addition to its excellent mechanical
4 characteristics, the polyurethane sheath has a good resistance to wear
combined with a high flexibility over a large range of temperatures.
