EXRAD®
EXRAD® FXD Door & Hatch Cable SAE TXL
EXRAD® FXD is a high performance wire designed specifically for flexibility and long flex life. Given today’s longer warranties you need a wire that will perform more bends and twists than ever before. EXRAD FXD will perform up to 9 times more flexing than conventional wire.
Overview
EXRAD® FXD is a high performance wire designed specifically for flexibility and long flex life, even in cold temperatures. The temperature performance range of FXD is –70°C to +125°C, well beyond other products failure point. Standard connectors terminate and seal well with FXD because it meets TXL dimensions.
Even though it is flexible, FXD has enough column strength to allow easy insertion through the seals of water-resistant connectors. The high temperature performance and fluid resistance of FXD means it can be routed throughout the vehicle including the engine compartment. Superior abrasion and pinch resistance ensures durability and helps keep the wire harness safe and free from defect even with hundreds of thousands of flexes.
Given today’s longer warranties you need a wire that will perform more bends and twists than ever before. EXRAD FXD provides up to 9 times more flexing than conventional wire. The end result is an automotive wire ideally suited to applications where a combination of flexibility, long flex life and performance is required.
