Off the Shelf Wire Products

Ultraflexible Hook Up Wire

Our proprietary lines of ultraflexible, off the shelf wire products are hook up capable for a perfect fit for applications where demanding flex, superior quality, high flexibility, long flex-life and miniaturization are required. Our quality wire and cable policy will give you the peace of mind you need for all your projects. We offer the following ultraflexible wire and cable products.

Med Flexwire

Med Flexwire was pioneered and developed by Calmont for the exacting medical applications. Specially compounded biocompatible polyvinyl chloride insulation applied over ultra-fine stranded wire yields a finished wire with a longer flex life and a higher flexure index level than that attainable with ordinary PVC insulated wire. It’s ideal for low temperature, high flex applications. Med Flexwire is commonly used for disposable medical devices, robotics, sensors and assorted cost sensitive applications.

FluoroFlex

Calmont’s precision extrusion techniques combine the superior properties of FEP with the durability of a highly stranded conductor to produce an unequalled product. It is small and lightweight, yet will withstand the severe and repeated flexing that usually destroys other fluorocarbon insulated wires. FluoroFlex is highly versatile and suitable for broad usage in aerospace, computer, and medical electronics.

Being chemically inert, FluoroFlex can be used for medical implantation. It has the smallest finished diameter of any of the Calmont high flex products. FluoroFlex’s excellent dielectric properties also make it ideal for data and audio applications.

SiliFlex

SiliFlex is distinguished by its extreme limpness and flexibility. It is the most limber of all the high flex products offered by Calmont and is thus very versatile. Silicone compounds are inherently soft and pliable and resist the plastic flow that characterizes many insulation systems. Silicone compounds can be tailored to meet a variety of demands such as extreme high and low temperature requirements, flame resistance, flexibility, radiation resistance, strength and purity. SilifFlex is used extensively for robotic, aerospace and medical applications.

SiliFlex Ribbon Cable

SiliFlex Ribbon Cable is produced from high stand, round copper conductors that are individually insulated with silicone rubber. They are then laid parallel and bonded in an extremely flexible flat form. With this flat configuration, the mechanical load applied to the cable is distributed over the total width of the cable, allowing for improved heat dissipation and greater flex life performance over traditional round cables. SiliFlex Ribbon Cables are the perfect solution for applications like computer hardware hookup, aircraft, and industrial automations. This cable is high temperature resistant (150-200 Cº) and is tested to withstand several million flexes without breakage. SiliFlex Ribbon Cable is manufactured in accordance with, and can be certified to meet, the applicable requirements of MIL-W-16878, Type F.

High Temperature Hook Up Wire

FluoroFlex

Calmont’s precision extrusion techniques combine the superior properties of FEP with the durability of a highly stranded conductor to produce an unequalled product. It is small and lightweight, yet will withstand the severe and repeated flexing that destroys other fluorocarbon-insulated wires. FluoroFlex is highly versatile and suitable for broad use in aerospace, computer, and medical electronics.

As a chemically inert product, FluoroFlex can be used for medical implantation. It has the smallest finished-diameter of any of the Calmont high-flex products. This is of great importance in aerospace and medical applications. FluoroFlex’s excellent dielectric properties also make it ideal for data and audio applications.
