SIMH Silicone Cables

The SIMH silicone cable is a multicore heat-resistant cable in which flexible copper cores with silicone insulation are bundled inside a silicone outer sheath. It is used on lines where the cable runs exposed in a hot environment, such as the power and control connections of electric ovens, heaters, sauna stoves, and machines in foundries and glass plants. In the category, Birtaş Kablo's SIMH-OZ, SIMH-JB and SIMH-OB, Mekas Kablo's SIMH and SIMH-FE180, and Reçber Kablo's SIMH types are sold by the meter in cross-sections such as 2x0.75 mm², 3x1.5 mm², 4x2.5 mm² and 12x2.5 mm². Choose the number of cores according to the need for phase, neutral, protective conductor and control cores, the cross-section according to load current and ambient temperature, and the color-coded or numbered core layout according to the wiring diagram. Types marked FE180 are fire-resistant cables tested to maintain circuit integrity in a fire for a specified time; the project and specification determine in which circuit they are required. Standard SIMH is unshielded: on measurement and signal lines that run beside drive and motor cables, it is not a substitute for the shielded SIMH (H05SSC4S-K) cable.

How to choose SIMH Silicone Cables

The SIMH silicone cable is a multicore heat-resistant cable in which flexible copper cores with silicone insulation are bundled inside a silicone outer sheath. It is used on lines where the cable runs exposed in a hot environment, such as the power and control connections of electric ovens, heaters, sauna stoves, and machines in foundries and glass plants.

  • 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.
