Spiral cable assemblies are often seen in our lives. For example, the telephone cable under the telephone microphone is a spiral cable assembly. People usually play with it in their hands while talking on the phone.

There is also the power cord of a vacuum cleaner, which is also a common spiral cable assembly. In addition to convenient storage, it is also very beautiful.

So you know the spiral cable assembly, what is the specific role and use of the field? Today, we will talk about it in detail: 

1: Spiral cable assembly role

1. Manage cables 

Spiral cable assembly can effectively fix and protect cables from tangling, abrasion, and breakage.

2 . Provide flexibility

Spiral cable assemblies have good scalability and are suitable for equipment that needs to be moved or retracted frequently.

3. Reduces Stress

In environments with frequent movement or vibration, spring cable harnesses can reduce stress on cables and extend service life.

4. Increase Safety

Spiral cable assemblies prevent cables from loosening or accidentally disconnecting, ensuring stable equipment operation, and are suitable in scenarios with high safety requirements.

5. Easy to install and maintain

Spiral cable assemblies are easy to install and maintain, suitable for complex wiring systems, reducing time and cost.

6. Adaptable to various environments

Spiral cable assemblies protect performance in high-temperature, low-temperature, humid, or corrosive environments.

7. Enhance aesthetics

Spiral cable assemblies give equipment a cleaner appearance.

Spiral cable assemblies are widely used in industrial, automotive, electronics, medical, aerospace, communications, energy, home equipment, entertainment, and military applications, mainly to protect cables, provide flexibility, and extend service life.

1. Industrial automation, such as robotics, CNC machine tools, conveyor systems, etc.

2. Automotive industry, such as automotive wiring harness, electric vehicles, sensors, and control systems.

3. Consumer electronics, such as headphone cables, charging cables, and household appliances.

4. Medical equipment, such as medical robots, monitoring equipment, and mobile medical equipment.

5. Aerospace, e.g., aircraft wiring harnesses, satellites, and spacecraft.

6. Communication equipment, such as fiber optic cables and base station equipment.

7. Energy fields, such as solar tracking systems and wind power generation.

8. Home and office equipment, such as telescopic lamps and office equipment.

9. Entertainment and stage equipment, such as stage lighting and audio equipment.

10: Military and defense, such as military vehicles, raar, a nd communication equipment.

FAQ for Kaweei's custom spiral cable assemblies

Q: What are the main benefits of a spiral cable?

A: Their main benefit is the ability to stretch and retract neatly. This prevents tangling, manages length automatically, and provides excellent strain relief for longer cable life.

Q: What can be customized in a spiral cable assembly?

A: We can customize almost everything: the type of cable (power, data, signal), the connectors on each end, the length when coiled and stretched, and the jacket color.

Q: What information do I need to provide for a custom order?

A: Please tell us the application (what device it's for), what the cable will carry (power, data, signals), the required lengths, and the type of connectors you need.

Q: How is the pricing and lead time determined?

A: As each cable is custom-built, the price and production lead time are determined by your specific requirements. We will provide a quotation and timeline after reviewing your needs.
