Cable protection systems

ARA-TEX RI

ARA-TEX RI combines the proven properties of aramid fibre with an additional integrated insulating layer. This makes this cable protection particularly resistant to heat, abrasion and electrical influences – ideal for continuous industrial use under extreme conditions.

  • Integrated insulating layer for increased protection against thermal and electrical influences
  • Temperature-resistant up to +235°C (short-term)
  • Suitable for heavily stressed cable harnesses and cable packages

About the product
Increased thermal protection through impregnation
The additional silicone impregnation ensures particularly good insulation.
High mechanical load capacity
Aramid ensures excellent abrasion resistance - even in vibrating or moving applications.
Institute-tested marten protection
The Ara-Tex Ri provides reliable protection against marten bites.
Temperature resistance up to +235°C (short-term)
Permanently heat-resistant up to +210°C, without material embrittlement or degradation of the fibres.
Non-flammable and halogen-free
Ideal for applications with increased requirements for fire protection and environmental compatibility.
Flexible processing
Easily adaptable to individual cable lengths and diameters - available as a hose or by the metre.

Product description

With ARA-TEX RI, BIW offers an innovative protection system for cables and wires that goes beyond the mechanical robustness of aramid fibre. The additional silicone impregnation makes this product the ideal solution in thermally and mechanically demanding environments. Areas of application include the automotive industry, mechanical and plant engineering and mobile applications such as railway vehicles and construction machinery.

Thanks to the combination of hard-wearing aramid fabric and a functional insulating structure, ARA-TEX RI can be used to protect both individual cables and complex bundles reliably and sustainably – with a high degree of flexibility in processing.
