A manufacture process that allows to isolate cables with PTFE on copper polished without oxidizing them. This is the last innovation of Axon' Cable, destined to all the applications submissive temperatures of more than 200 ºC. This new process patented by Axon', allows to extruir insulator PTFE on a polished copper conductor, without degrading the surface of this conductor. This prevents the appearance of the oxidation and, consequently, it allows to conserve the qualities of copper necessary to assure a good connection.
Until now, only the cables isolated with silicone or thermoplastic insulators like the PFA, benefitted from a manufacture process that did not oxidize copper. But as of today the new process of Axon' proposes one more an alternative economic than the one of cables with insulator PFA on polished copper. In fact, the cost of the PTFE is minor who the one of the PFA, offering the same thermal characteristics. The other advantage of this process patented by Axon' is that it is not necessary to cover nickel or silver copper to protect the conductor of the oxidation. Besides being exceptional an electric insulator, the PTFE has a high chemical resistance, resists to the soldering iron (350ºC) and is auto-extinguishable. Also it supports very well the abrasion. Against to which it happens with the thermoplastic materials such as the PFA, the PTFE is not based and allows, also, to obtain insulators finer than in the case of cables isolated with silicone. The cables with insulator PTFE are the ideal solution for applications submissive temperatures of more than 200 ºC, such as the applications in electric home appliances (furnaces, plates of kitchen, burners of boilers…) and those of the automobile (engines areas).
