A single-core cable consists of a single conductor, typically copper, surrounded by an insulating layer. Unlike multi-core or sheathed cables, they are not bundled with other conductors or enclosed in an outer jacket. This makes them highly flexible for internal wiring applications where space, routing and accessibility are key considerations.
LAPP single-core cables are widely used in control cabinet wiring, where clear routing, colour coding, and ease of termination are essential. Their compact form factor allows for efficient use of space, while their insulation materials ensure long-term reliability under varying thermal and mechanical loads.
In electrical assemblies and distribution panels, single-core cables can be useful in connecting circuit breakers, relays, terminal blocks and other components. The availability of halogen-free and flame-retardant options supports compliance with fire safety regulations in public buildings, transport systems and industrial facilities.
For environments with high electromagnetic interference (EMI), screened single-core cables offer additional protection, helping to maintain signal integrity in control and communication circuits.
Lapp cable chain cables
Cable chain cables, also known as drag chain or energy chain cables, are designed to withstand the mechanical demands of repetitive motion. Unlike standard fixed-installation cables, they must maintain electrical integrity and mechanical performance under continuous flexing, often in tight bending radii and high-speed operations.
LAPP cable chain cables are engineered for continuous motion environments where durability and flexibility are essential. Designed specifically for use in dynamic cable chains, these cables are ideal for industrial automation, robotics, and machine tools, applications where cables are subject to constant bending, torsion and mechanical stress.
Lapp lock nuts
LAPP cable lock nuts are essential components in electrical and industrial cable management systems, providing secure and reliable fastening for cable glands and conduit entries. Available in a variety of materials and thread types, these lock nuts are designed to meet the mechanical and environmental demands of modern installations.
LAPP offers a comprehensive range of lock nuts in plastic, metal, and stainless steel, each suited to specific application environments:
- Plastic lock nuts are lightweight and corrosion-resistant, ideal for indoor use or non-critical environments where chemical exposure is minimal.
- Metal lock nuts, typically made from nickel-plated brass, provide enhanced mechanical strength and are suitable for industrial settings with moderate environmental exposure.
- Stainless steel lock nuts offer superior corrosion resistance and are recommended for harsh environments, including food processing, marine, and chemical industries.
