Kabelis 16 mm² HI FLEX melns

The 'HI FLEX' designation indicates that this cable has increased flexibility compared to standard electrical cables. This property is essential to facilitate its routing through the often complex conduits and cable trays found aboard boats. Additionally, a flexible cable like the KA160 minimizes mechanical stress on the conductors and reduces the risk of copper fatigue caused by constant vibrations at sea.

This 16mm² cable is designed for demanding marine electrical installations requiring high current-carrying capacity. It is ideal for applications such as battery connections, engine starters, windlasses, or medium-power inverters aboard vessels.

The high flexibility of this cable is crucial for marine installations because it greatly facilitates routing through confined spaces, conduits, and the tortuous cable runs typical of boats. It also minimizes mechanical stress on the conductors, which is essential for the durability of the system against the constant vibrations and movements at sea, thereby reducing the risk of premature copper failure.

The 16mm² HI FLEX Black cable is designed for power applications. Its cross-section is larger than cables (e.g., 2.5mm² or 4mm²) commonly used for lighting or small electronic equipment. It differs from larger cross-sections (such as 25mm² or 35mm²) by offering an optimal balance between current capacity and maneuverability, making it versatile for many medium to high-power applications.

This cable is black. In marine electrical installations, black is often used for clear identification of polarities or functions, usually in combination with red cables for positive. This helps maintain order and safety in boat wiring.

The 16mm² HI FLEX Black cable is sold by the meter. You can order the exact length you need for your installations.
