These thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) jacketed cables and splitters with silicone tubing withstand the harsh conditions of welding environments. They operate in increased ambient temperatures and resist thermal shocks, weld sparks and spatter. TPE jackets offer weld spark resistance and a high flex life rating of more than 10 million cycles. A silicone tube over the cable, which is overmolded to the connector, creates an insulating air pocket that increases the temperature resistance to up to 250 °C. The silicone tube also prevents occasional weld spatter and sparks from burning through the cable. The cables are available in lengths from 0.3 to 2 m and with multiple connector types.
