Alpha Wire's XTRA.GUARD® FleXible Cable are designed to deliver extreme performance and system reliability in most extreme environments, keeping automated systems running and data flowing at maximum capacity. What we call a "Lifeline to a Lifetime of Reliability."
What makes them unique is their ability to withstand the physical abuses of extreme flexing; immersion in oils, chemicals, solvents and fuels; EMI/RFI interference; UV exposure; abrasion; heat; cold; and direct burial.

Flex Damage |
Avoiding Cable Failure
One of the key factors in cable failure in flexing environments is the breakdown of the jacket materials, particularly the shielding, as it is exposed to extreme differences in bend radiuses on the inner and outer edges. Therefore, the importance of specifying the correct flexible cable from the outset can not be over stressed.
