GORE™ High Flex Flat Cables are used in applications where flex life reliability is critical. The reliable performance of GORE™ High Flex Flat Cables reduces expensive equipment downtime and field repair due to cable failure. GORE™ High Flex Flat Spooled Cable is recommended for longer lengths (greater than 30 m) and is cost effective with high volume pricing when large quantities are needed. GORE™ High Flex Flat Cables provide reliability and superior performance with quick lead times.
Gore's interactive design tool provides step-by-step instructions to configure GORE™ High Flex Round or Flat Cable or GORE™ Trackless Cable from standard components. Designs can be saved and submited to Gore for a free quote.
GORE™ High Flex Flat Spooled Cable can be used in any energy chain or cable track. GORE™ Spooled Flat Cables are the narrowest cable option available and provide a smaller package solution that can reduce cable track size to allow for better utilization of space. Cable track may not even be necessary for short stroke lengths of 0.5 m (20”) or less. For prototypes or low volumes, consider using GORE™ High Flex Flat Discrete Length Cable and then convert to GORE™ High Flex Flat Spooled Cable as volumes increase.

When cables move, flex, and rub against cable chains, the cable jackets can shed particles. In addition, the materials used in constructing cables and assemblies can outgas and contaminate in a cleanroom. GORE™ High Flex Flat Cables provide a cost effective solution for cleanroom cable systems and are certified for ISO Class 1 Cleanrooms and low pressure vacuum environments.
