Polycab Machine and Tool Cable – Bunched Copper, PVC or HFFR, Unsheathed or FR / FR-LSH / LSZH

The Polycab Machine and Tool Cable is a bunched copper wiring cable for machines and machine tools, PVC or halogen-free (HFFR) insulated, unsheathed or laid up and sheathed with FR, FR-LSH or LSZH compounds. Polycab's catalogue lists it as conforming to IS 694 and IS 17048. It is supplied at a price on request: cable prices depend on the construction, the quantity and the raw-material prices on the day.

Is this the right one for you?

Check these four things before you order:

• The cable wires a machine, a machine tool or its control panel.
• You know whether PVC or halogen-free (HFFR) insulation is specified.
• You know the cores, size and colours, and whether a sheath is needed.
• The voltage suits the standard - IS 694 PVC cables up to 450/750 V, IS 17048 HFFR cables up to 1100 V.

Why choose the Polycab Machine and Tool Cable

• Bunched (flexible) copper conductors for machine wiring
• PVC or halogen-free (HFFR) insulation
• Unsheathed single cores or sheathed multicore versions
• FR, FR-LSH and LSZH sheaths

How to choose and specify it

PVC or HFFR. PVC types follow IS 694 (up to 450/750 V); HFFR types follow IS 17048 (up to 1100 V) and give off far less smoke and no halogen acid gases in a fire, which suits enclosed workshops and export machines with halogen-free requirements. FR and FR-LSH sheaths are PVC compounds, so a fully halogen-free cable needs HFFR insulation with an LSZH sheath.

Sheathed or not. Single unsheathed cores suit wiring inside panels and machine enclosures; sheathed multicore cables suit connections between machine parts.

Colours and sizes. Tell us the sizes and the colour code your drawings use.

Flexing duty. For drag-chain (continuous flexing) runs, tell us the duty and we confirm a suitable cable.

Frequently asked questions

What is the price of the Polycab Machine and Tool Cable?

The Polycab Machine and Tool Cable is supplied at a price on request, because cable prices depend on the construction, the quantity and the raw-material prices on the day. Call +91 9340081159 for a quotation.

PVC or HFFR - which do I need?

PVC is the general-purpose choice (IS 694). HFFR (IS 17048) is halogen-free and low smoke, for enclosed spaces or customers who ask for halogen-free wiring. If you need a fully halogen-free sheathed cable, ask for HFFR insulation with an LSZH sheath: FR and FR-LSH sheaths are PVC.

Is a sheathed version available?

Yes - unsheathed, or laid up and sheathed with FR, FR-LSH or LSZH compound.

Which standards apply?

IS 694 for the PVC types and IS 17048 for the HFFR types, as the catalogue lists.

Where can I buy the Polycab Machine and Tool Cable in Chhattisgarh?

From Jai Enterprises, Bhilai and Raipur, which supplies Polycab cables to every district of Chhattisgarh and across India. Call +91 9340081159 for the price, stock and lead time.
