Product Description

The CHAINFLEX CF5-05-18-25 is a continuous flexing control cable from the Chainflex series, featuring 20 AWG, 18 conductors, a PVC jacket, and a 600 V rating. It includes a ground conductor, uses copper conductors with a single configuration, and is oil and grease resistant. The cable meets CE standards and has minimum bend radius factors of 4 x OD for fixed installation, 5 x OD for flexible use, and 6.8 x OD for e-chain applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CHAINFLEX CF5-05-18-25 control cable used for?

The CHAINFLEX CF5-05-18-25 is a continuous flexing control cable designed for automated machinery, robotics, and conveyor systems that require repeated bending. Its oil- and grease-resistant PVC jacket and 600 V rating make it suitable for industrial environments where cables move in cable carriers (e-chains) or flexible tracks.

What are the specifications of the CHAINFLEX CF5-05-18-25?

This CHAINFLEX cable has 20 AWG, 18 copper conductors with a single configuration, includes a ground conductor, and is rated 600 V. It meets CE standards. Minimum bend radius factors are 4 x OD for fixed, 5 x OD for flexible, and 6.8 x OD for e-chain applications. The PVC jacket is oil and grease resistant.
