Teflon cable in aviation cable application

Aircraft Cable Manufacturers Popularize Teflon Cables for Aerospace Cable Applications

Aviation industry is a field with very high requirements on materials. With the continuous progress of aviation technology, the electrical system inside the airplane is becoming more and more complex, and the cable, as the “nervous system” connecting each electrical component, has a direct relationship with the performance and stability of the airplane’s safe flight. Therefore, to find a cable material that can meet the stringent requirements of the aviation industry has been the focus of research and development in this field.

In the traditional aviation cable materials, although there are many kinds of materials to choose from, they are often difficult to simultaneously meet the multiple requirements of high temperature, corrosion resistance, electrical performance stability and so on. Especially in high temperature environments, the performance of many materials will be significantly reduced, and even cause safety hazards. In addition, aviation cables also need to have lightweight, wear-resistant features to reduce the flight burden and improve service life.

Industry Applications:

Teflon cable has a wide range of applications in the aviation field. It can be used in aircraft engine control system, navigation system, communication system and flight control system and other key parts. In addition, Teflon cables also play an important role in the electrical connection of the landing gear, wings, tail and other parts of the airplane.

Engine control system cables
High-temperature environment: Teflon cables can work stably in environments as high as 250°C, which is very suitable for control systems close to aircraft engines.
Corrosion resistance: Various chemicals may be generated during engine operation, Teflon’s corrosion resistance can effectively protect the cable from damage.
Navigation systems cables
Stable electrical performance: navigation systems require high-precision signal transmission, Teflon cables have stable electrical performance to ensure accurate signal transmission.
Lightweight: Teflon cable’s lightweight feature helps to reduce the flight burden, which has a positive impact on improving flight efficiency.
Communication system cables
High-frequency signal transmission: Teflon cable is suitable for high-frequency signal transmission, and its low dielectric constant and low attenuation characteristics make the signal transmission clearer.
Good flame retardancy: In an emergency, the flame retardancy of Teflon cables helps reduce the risk of fire, buying valuable escape time for passengers and crew.
Flight control systems cables
Abrasion Resistant: Cables in flight control systems need to withstand frequent bending and movement, Teflon cable’s abrasion resistance helps extend the life of the cable.
Low Temperature Resistance: In the high altitude low temperature environment, Teflon cable can still maintain the flexibility and electrical performance stability, to ensure the normal operation of the flight control system.
