Construction
Conductors
22 AWG – 2 AWG
Annealed, tinned copper
Insulating System
Extruded silicone rubber with fiberglass braid cover
over each insulated conductor. K-2 color code. (Unless specified)
Barrier Tape
Flame Retardant Thermal barrier Tape.
Inner Covering
Inner braid Jacket of aramid K-fibers with moisture, flame and heat resistant finish.

Characteristics
• Silicone formulations suitable for UV, ozone, moisture exposure.
• Cable utilizes Radix “Torque Free” design. This eliminates memory found
     in traditional right hand or left hand twisted cables.
• Suitable for applications to -40°C.
• Binder tape provides moisture resistance.
• Aramid K-fiber braid and stainless steel jacket provide maximum ruggedness.
• Not recommended for outdoor use.
　

APPLICATION
SKS is constructed for use in high temperature applications as a multiple conductor power
and control cable where resistance to abrasion, moisture, hot material spills and mechanical
abuse are desired. This cable is widely used in steel plants, as soaking pit cable, slag
and teeming ladle car cable, overhead crane cable and in glass plants.
