Single-core PVC cable, very flexible LiFY 0.5 mm² red 15402

Single-core PVC wire – flexibility and reliability in every application

This red, single-core PVC wire from Helukabel is the ideal solution wherever flexibility and resistance to bending are important. The wire is designed for a wide range of applications – from building control cabinets, through laboratories, to installations requiring frequent bending. Made from high-quality materials, it provides safe and reliable electrical connections.

Construction and properties

The LiFY wire is characterized by a stranded construction (class 6), which translates to exceptional flexibility. The polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation provides good protection against mechanical damage and external factors. The wire is designed to operate at temperatures from -15°C to +80°C, both in flexible and stationary mode. The rated voltage is 300/500V, and in some cases even 1000V – making it a universal solution for many installations.

Applications and benefits

This wire is used in:

• Building control cabinets: flexibility makes it easier to route wires in tight spaces.
• Measurement systems in laboratories: ensures precise and stable connections.
• Installations requiring frequent bending: bending resistance guarantees long-term reliability.
• Internal connections of electrical devices: ideal for connecting components inside devices.

Additional advantages:

• Stranded construction: provides high flexibility and resistance to material fatigue.
• PVC insulation: protects against mechanical damage and external factors.
• Wide operating temperature range: allows use in various environmental conditions.
• Compliance with standards: the wire meets the requirements of DIN VDE 0250, DIN VDE 0285-525-1 and DIN VDE 50525-1, which guarantees its safety and quality.
• Minimum bending radius: flexible 8 x cable diameter, for fixed laying 4x cable diameter – facilitates installation even in difficult conditions.

The conductor cross-section is 0.5 mm², and its approximate outer diameter is 2.2 mm. The wire is available in red, which makes it easier to identify individual cores in the installation. The materials used in production do not contain silicone, cadmium or substances that interfere with painting.
