Bekiflex® Hx - Durable micro cables with a textile core
To expand our offering, Bekaert extended its current portfolio by developing an
ultra fine cable – in a Helix/hybrid construction – combining
a textile core and conductive wires – steel or copper based. The conductive wires are spiraled in a defined pattern around the textile core.
The textile core gives extra durability to the overall construction, enabling the Helix cables to be used in different conductive applications.
Durability guaranteed
Consistency in
electrical resistance and
durability are important parameters, as they determine the overall performance of the Helix cables. We offer an extensive micro cable product portfolio, with a wide
electrical resistance range from 0.09 Ohm/meter to 200 Ohm/meter and high flexibility.
The wires can be individually lacquered and the Bekiflex® Hx cable can be provided with an extrusion coating. The overall diameter is < 1.2 mm including the coating. Due to the hybrid structure, combining strength of wires and a textile core, these micro cables have an increased mechanical performance.
Benefits of Bekaert micro cables Bekiflex® Hx include:
Increased mechanical performance
Design flexibility
Wide electrical resistance range
