RADOX® cable technology - HUBER+SUHNER

RADOX® stands for "radiation X-linked" and describes the process of crosslinking thermoplastic polymers by means of electron beams. HUBER+SUHNER has been using this technology, which was developed in-house, successfully since the 1970s to achieve notable improvements in the thermal, mechanical and chemical properties of the cable insulation material. RADOX® cables do not melt, possess better abrasion resistance and greater cut resistance than conventional cables and, even with thinner insulation, are much more resistant to various environmental factors.

Development

HUBER+SUHNER develops the RADOX® materials itself. The cables are designed and manufactured in accordance with international standards, as well as customer-specific requirements. Decades of experience, continuous quality checks and extensive laboratory tests guarantee the highest quality standards.

Electro-beam crosslinking

The RADOX® cables are completed by electron-beam crosslinking. The cable is passed through the crosslinking system in a controlled manner. Radiation with high-energy electrons changes the chemical structure of the polymer across the entire circumference of the cable. The molecules of the polymer are then cross-linked, which brings the process to a close.
