Southwire Expands Cord Line With Viper Rubber Cord And QuantumTPE Cord
CARROLLTON, Ga. - Jan. 4, 2007 - Southwire, North America's leading manufacturer of wire and cable, has expanded its line of cord products with the introduction of Viper(TM) rubber cord and QuantumTPE(TM) cord products. Southwire now provides one of the industry's most comprehensive offerings of rubber, TPE and PVC flexible cord solutions for industrial and commercial applications. Both new cord lines are manufactured in the U.S. to the highest industry standards.
The Southwire flexible cord family is available with 300V and 600V ratings. All have sunlight resistant jackets rated for outdoor use and conductors rated for wet locations. Conductor insulations and outer jackets are oil resistant. Available configurations include up to five conductors. Conductor sizes range from 2 AWG to 18 AWG in most constructions. Viper rubber cord and QuantumTPE cord, along with specialty cord products, are stocked by Southwire's nine Master Service Centers and are available for immediate shipment.
"The addition to the Southwire family of the Viper line of rubber cord products and the QuantumTPE product line are examples of how we respond to customer needs," said David Cooper, Southwire cord products manager. "Order and inventory management can be a time-consuming and costly process when you have to deal with multiple suppliers. With our nationwide network of Master Service Centers, we can provide customers with a single source for all their cord product needs, helping them simplify supply chain management and assure rapid availability for easier project scheduling."
Viper rubber cord products deliver exceptional performance and durability for the extreme operating environments found in industrial plants and contractor job sites. They resist extreme heat, oil, chemicals, abrasion and other hazards found in the most abusive settings.
High-quality QuantumTPE cords offer extreme flexibility under a broad range of operating temperatures, from as low as -60°C up to 105°C. Ideal for contractor-and commercial-grade applications, these cords are light in weight, easy to handle and don't leave scuff marks on floors.
