CABLE STRIPPING IN HALF THE TIME
06 November 2012
Expert in dynamic cabling for energy chains, igus UK, has devised an intelligent solution to strip back long lengths of cable both quickly and easily....

By integrating a tear strip into the cable jacket, CFRIP simplifies the stripping back of the cables, especially for those with gusset-filled extruded jackets, without damaging the cores.
With just a few steps, the outer jacket can be opened like a zipper to the desired length by simply pulling the special CFRIP tear strip. Electrical engineers and panel fitters can not only save 50% of the cable stripping time typically required using conventional methods, but also avoid the need for additional cable stripping tools. The cables are also designed in such a way that the integrated tear strip doesn’t damage the outer jacket or cores during operation.
