Withstands Harsh Space Travel Conditions

GORE® Space Cables, Type CSWL, are built with temperature- and chemical-resistant materials necessary for space travel. They also reduce the risk of cut-through and material creep. Our cables offer smaller, low-mass diameters with tighter bending and extremely low spring-back for simpler installation and valuable weight savings.
