Reduce cable strip back time by up to 50%
Flexible cable innovator igus has developed CFRIP, a unique new cable with an integrated stripping cord for the rapid and safe stripping of cables, even those with gusset filled extruded jackets.
>The benefit of this cable is that it requires no extra tools and reduces cable strip back times of around 50%, which is great news for electrical engineers and panel fitters. Stripping back cables is really easy; all that's required to open the outer jacket is to simply pull the special integrated tear strip to the desired length and see the jacket fall away. Furthermore, igus has designed the tear strip so that it doesn't cause any damage to the cores or outer jacket of the cable.
>This new technology is offered in chainflex ranges CF5 PVC control cable family and chainflex CF6 shielded versions. To watch a short video demonstrating CFRIP in action visit: www.igus.co.uk/videos/fastcablestripping
