In rail transportation technology, electrical systems have to withstand extreme loads on a permanent basis. Vibrations, temperature fluctuations and fire hazards place high demands on cables and wires. In high-speed trains such as ICEs in particular, cables must be able to withstand high loads.

Techflex offers innovative cable protection solutions that have been specially developed for the challenges in trains themselves as well as for the rail infrastructure. With our products, you can ensure the reliability and durability of your electrical systems - whether control cables, power cables or data cables. At the same time, you increase the efficiency of maintenance and repairs.

In rail transportation, cables are constantly exposed to vibrations, mechanical loads and, of course, changing environmental influences. Trains move at high speeds through a wide range of climatic zones, from icy winter conditions to hot summer months. In addition, fire safety regulations require flame-retardant materials to ensure the safety of passengers and staff.

Techflex offers special protective conduits that meet these requirements. Our cable protection solutions for rail transportation technology provide reliable protection against abrasion, heat and fire.

Fire protection is a key issue in rail transportation. Flame-retardant protective conduits prevent the spread of fire and minimize smoke development in the event of a fire. They therefore meet the high safety requirements of the DIN EN 45545-2 standard.

Flexo® Flame Retardant is a self-extinguishing PET braided sleeving that effectively protects cables from abrasion and fire. It complies with HL2 certification in accordance with DIN EN 45545-2 and withstands temperatures from -70 °C to 125 °C. This protective conduit is ideally suited for use in train walls, floors and machine rooms where control and power cables need to be reliably protected. Its high expandability makes it easy to install and adapt to different cable bundles.

The Clean Cut® Flame Retardant not only offers flame-retardant properties, but can also be cut without fraying. This makes installation easier and ensures clean end pieces - a decisive advantage for complex cabling in multiple units or control units. Thanks to its HL2 certification and high abrasion resistance, it is the perfect choice for sensitive control and data cables in areas subject to high mechanical stress.

In trains, many cable harnesses run in very confined spaces. Efficient bundling and protection of the cables is crucial to ensure order and avoid breakdowns.

The Flexo F6® Flame Retardant combines flame-retardant protection with a practical, self-closing design. This braided sleeving offers a 25 percent edge overlap and reliably protects cables from fire and mechanical stress. It is particularly suitable for areas where cables need to be bundled or maintained. It is therefore used in maintenance hatches or under benches in passenger carriages, for example.

The F6® Woven Wrap Flame Retardant offers optimum protection for complex cabling. Its dense woven structure ensures complete coverage of the cable bundles and protects against abrasion and fire. It is particularly useful for communication and data cables used in trains in the area of on-board electronics or infotainment systems. The self-closing function enables quick installation without dismantling existing systems.

Techflex offers cable protection solutions that meet the high requirements of rail transportation technology. Our flame-retardant, robust and flexible products ensure maximum safety and reliability in day-to-day operations.
