Armoring
Cable armoring provides mechanical protection against physical damage, crushing, and rodent attacks. Essential for underground and harsh environment installations.
What is Armoring?
Cable armoring is a process where steel wires or tapes are applied around the cable core to provide mechanical protection. This protects cables from physical damage, crushing forces, and rodent attacks. Armoring is essential for cables used in underground installations and harsh environments.
