Flexible cables, with their soft multi-stranded structure, are among the most widely used electrical cables in residential and industrial applications. From light-duty and shielded cables to power and marine cables, they cover a broad spectrum of needs in the electrical industry.
A flexible cable consists of multiple fine stranded copper conductors bundled together and covered with a PVC or rubber sheath. Thanks to their soft and bend-friendly structure, flexible cables are far more suitable than solid-core cables for moving equipment or routes with frequent bends and curves.
In addition to household use, flexible cables are widely applied in heavy industries, power plants, construction projects, lighting systems, and even in special environments such as offshore platforms and marine applications.
