Silicone Cables
A silicone cable is a heat-resistant cable whose insulation, and outer sheath if present, are made of silicone rubber and which stays flexible at both high and low temperatures. It is used where PVC insulation softens from heat or hardens in the cold, for example in ovens, heater and resistance element connections, inside luminaires, in saunas and in hot machine sections. In the category, single-core SIAF, multicore SIMH and copper braid shielded SIMH silicone cables and glass fiber braided SIF-GL types are sold by the meter from the Birtaş Kablo, Reçber Kablo and Mekas Kablo brands. First decide whether a single-core or multicore cable is needed and choose the type, then choose the cross-section according to load current, the rated voltage according to the circuit, and the temperature limit according to the hottest point the cable passes through. The temperature limit varies by manufacturer and type; the value on the product's data sheet is what counts. Types marked FE180 are fire-resistant cables tested to maintain circuit integrity in a fire. A silicone sheath is weak against cutting and abrasion; on routes with a risk of friction or crushing, additional mechanical protection is required.

How to choose Silicone Cables
A silicone cable is a heat-resistant cable whose insulation, and outer sheath if present, are made of silicone rubber and which stays flexible at both high and low temperatures. It is used where PVC insulation softens from heat or hardens in the cold, for example in ovens, heater and resistance element connections, inside luminaires, in saunas and in hot machine sections.
- Clarify the circuit duty first: power distribution, control, fire safety, Ethernet or analog signal.
- Compare conductor cross-section, core count, insulation and shielding against the installation route.
- Switch to the proper cable family early when flex duty, oil resistance, halogen-free jacket or fire integrity is required.
