EcoFlex™ Cable
Smaller. Lighter. Tougher. 100% Recyclable.
Total Performance,
Completely Recyclable
EcoFlex cable is Alpha Wire’s
newest innovation in control
cabling. A true engineering
breakthrough, EcoFlex cable
combines better performance
with a minimum environmental
impact. It derives its
advantages from modified
polyphenylene ether (mPPE)
jacketing and insulation.
EcoFlex is:
• 100% Recyclable
• Up to 32% smaller
• Up to 55% lighter
• Capable of handling
temperatures extremes
to -40°C
• Up to 91% lower outgassing
• Rated for over 1 million
flex cycles
mPPE Insulation:
All the Advantages in Smaller, Lighter Control Cable
Environmentally Friendly
EcoFlex cable contains no
halogens, phthalates, or heavy
metals. The mPPE thermoplastic
insulation and jacketing can
be easily recycled. They meet
RoHS and WEEE requirements
for the elimination of hazardous
substances and recyclability.
Low Specific Gravity
The 1.03 specific gravity of
mPPE is 25% to 40% lower than
other insulation materials,
such as PVC, polyethylene, and
cross-linked polyethylene. Along
with the reduced wall thickness,
the low specific gravity yields
significant weight savings of up
to 55% with EcoFlex cable.
Better Dielectric Strength
The superior dielectric properties
of mPPE make a reduced
wall thickness possible, while
maintaining the same electrical
properties as a thicker PVC
control cable.
More Choice in EMI
Protection
Alpha Wire offers EcoFlex
cable in three shielding options
to handle any electrical
environment.
• Unshielded
• Braid Shielded
• SupraShield® Foil + Braid Shield
Superior Availability
EcoFlex cables are available
from stock in most sizes and
constructions, with put-ups
as small as 100 feet. Alpha Wire
provides same-day shipment
and next-day delivery to
practically anywhere in
the world.
