Features

Thin layers of tinned electrolytic copper formed into a stack
Insulated by high-resistance, self-extinguishing PVC with less than 20% contact with conductor for high flexibility
Easily bent, folded, and twisted, improving assembly flexibility, shortening connections, and decreasing footprint
Dramatically smaller and more flexible than comparable cable based on ampacity
Better power density than cable with lower skin effect ratio
Connections made by punching and bolting directly through the copper laminates, clamping onto the end of the nVent ERIFLEX Flexibar, or welding using nVent ERICO Cadweld
No lugs needed, reducing installation time and improving resistance to vibration
Weight savings and material savings compared to wire alternatives
Reduces total installation cost
Traceability codes and designation part numbers printed on insulation
100% production dielectric tested
UL 758 Appliance Wiring Material requirements for Cold Bend testing at -40°C and -50°C (-40°F and -58°F)
EAC compliant
RoHS compliant
