FIRESURE 500

Our Firesure 500 cable has been designed for easier stripping whilst retaining the benefits of a helically wrapped design. The Firesure 500 design consists of a specially formulated single co-polymer metallic tape. The tape adheres to the sheath so upon stripping the sheath the tape is also removed.

However, other leading manufacturers of this type of design use a ‘longitudinally applied tape’. These longitudinal designs mean that the metallic tape required is simply folded along the inner conductors with a minimum 1mm tape overlap. Firesure 500 was designed to still incorporate a ‘helically’ applied metallic tape. This helically applied tape design means that the tape is continuously wrapped around the conductors with a minimum tape overlap of 20%.

The sheathing material of Firesure 500 is ‘pressure extruded’ as opposed to ‘tubed extruded’.

This means that rather than having the cores loosely placed within the sheath, the sheathing material is pressured onto the cores to fill interstices to allow a compact and solid cable.

The above features allows for the following key performance benefits, whilst still competing with the more electrician friendly termination process of removing the sheath and tape simultaneously.

These cables are suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications in suitably protected environments and is particularly appropriate for direct burial in plaster, clipped directly to surface, tray and other installations requiring a dressable product.

  • FIRESURE 500 KEY BENEFITS IN COMPARISON TO OTHER FIRE PERFORMANCE CABLES
  • TAPE IS ADHERED TO THE SHEATH (Allows tape and sheath to be removed simultaneously)
  • SUPERIOR EARTH CONTINUITY (Pressured sheath allows better contact of tape and CPC)
  • ENHANCED RESISTANCE TO CABLE KINKS (Subsequently protecting cables performance)
  • EXTREMELY ROBUST/DURABLE DESIGN (Pressured sheath leaves fewer gaps within cable)
  • SMALLER OVERALL DIAMETER (Pressured sheath results in more compact cable)
  • PREVENTS TRANSMISSION OF SMOKE AND DANGEROUS GASES THROUGH THE CABLE (Due to tightly pressured sheath resulting in minimal air gaps within the cable)
