DGR Control and Power Reeling Cable 0.6/1 (1.2) kV Heavy-Duty PUR Sheathed Flexible Mining & Industrial Reeling Cable

Product Overview

The DGR Control and Power Reeling Cable 0.6/1 (1.2) kV is a high-performance flexible cable specifically engineered for demanding reeling and dynamic applications. Designed with a reinforced polyurethane (PUR) outer sheath and anti-twist construction, it delivers exceptional mechanical strength, abrasion resistance, and long service life in harsh environments such as quarries, mining operations, ports, and heavy industrial machinery.

This cable is suitable for both power transmission and control circuits, offering reliable performance under continuous movement, torsion, and mechanical stress.


Applications

The DGR reeling cable is designed for extreme operating conditions, including:

  • Mining machinery and underground equipment

  • Quarries and open-pit extraction systems

  • Cranes, hoists, and lifting equipment

  • Port handling and container systems

  • Heavy-duty industrial reeling drums

  • Mobile and dynamic power supply systems

Thanks to its PUR sheath, it performs reliably in environments exposed to oil, UV radiation, ozone, moisture, and mechanical wear.


Cable Design

The cable is constructed using high-quality materials to ensure flexibility, durability, and operational safety:

1. Conductor

  • Flexible plain copper

  • Class 5 according to IEC 60228

2. Insulation

  • Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE)

3. Filler + Inner Sheath

  • Special compound for mechanical stability and round cable formation

4. Reinforcement

  • Anti-twist element to prevent torsional stress during reeling operations

5. Outer Sheath

  • Polyurethane (PUR)

  • High abrasion, cut, oil, UV, ozone, and moisture resistance

  • Colour: Yellow
