British Standard Industrial Cables
H01N2-D/E to BS 638
Application and Description
These cables are used as a connection between the welding generator, the hand-electrode and the
work piece, they are suitable for use in the automobile industry, ship building, transport and conveyor
systems, tool making machinery, welding robots etc. These cables retain their high flexibility even under
influence of ozone, light, oxygen, protective gases, oil and petrol. Robust design of these cables makes
them resistant to low and high temperature, fire, ozone and radiation, oils, acids, fats and petrols. These
cables are also ideal for outside installation in dry, moist and wet areas.
Cable Construction
- - Extra fine bare copper strands
- - Stranding to BS 6360 CL-5/6, IEC 60228 CL-5/6
