The longevity and appearance of many types of cable and cable assemblies can be greatly enhanced by specifying the application of thermoplastic coatings from Sanlo. Sanlo's pressure-extruded thermoplastic coatings form an integral part of the cable and are often recommended for use in applications involving lubricated cable or pulleys. The thermoplastic coating seals out contaminants and retains cable lubrication while cushioning the cable strands and helping to resist abrasion, helping to maintain flexibility and increasing useful cable service life.
Sanlo's expertise and experience in cable-coating technology, coupled with proprietary coating extrusion processes, allows us to provide smooth, uniformly concentric coatings on a wide range of cable types and diameters. Thermoplastic coatings can be extruded to over 1-1/8" diameter while maintaining consistently high quality. Our standard thermoplastic coatings offer a selection of types and colors to match your most exacting requirements.
| VINYL: |
Can be applied in a multitude of colors and provides a flexible, durable, UV-resistant protecting jacket
|
| NYLON: |
Can be applied primarily in natural and black colors. Provides a harder jacket that works well in applications that require abrasion and fatigue resistance
|
| 1 x 7 |
Non-flexible and can be used for straight pull-pull assemblies and guy wire applications in larger diameters |
| 1 x 19 |
Non-flexible and is used for push-pull assemblies and standard rigging on sailboats |
| 7 x 7 |
Flexible and provides good abrasion resistance |
| 7 x 19 |
Very flexible and works well over pulleys, drive cables, and lanyards |
| 6 x 19 |
Flexible and works well in abrasive applications having high strength requirements |
| 6 x 37 |
Very flexible and is used in applications that require bending and fatigue resistance |
