What is high temperature cable?

High Temperature Cable is crucial in a wide range of applications, including industrial, household and commercial ovens, in cooking and in drying equipment, in chemical processing and in medical equipment (e.g. in surgical devices that require sterilization in an autoclave).

High-temperature cable constructions, from conductor to insulating system, are rated 125°C, 150°C, 200°C, 250°C, 450°C and 550°C. Products include braided, braidless silicone (SRML), TGGT and MG types.
