XLPE Cable & Wire

What is XLPE?

Also known as Cross-linked Polyethylene, XLPE Wire is a very good insulation in terms of electrical properties. XLPE Wire & Cable has very high insulation resistance, a stable dielectric constant over all frequencies, and a low dielectric constant.

Features & Advantages of XLPE Wire

In terms of flexibility, polyethylene can be rated stiff to very hard, depending on molecular weight and density (low density being the most flexible). Black and specially formulated colored versions have excellent weather resistance.

• Moisture resistant
• Impressive electrical and physical properties
• XLPE cables are capable of carrying large currents due to excellent thermal resistance
• Easy to Install and maintain with cables being light in weight
• Excellent moisture resistance

Applications of XLPE:

With XLPE’s ability to work well in high voltage environments and industries, you will typically find XLPE Wire & Cable in applications such as:

• Pipework / Plumbing
• Insulation for electrical cables
• Mining industry
