Premium YFFB Flat Elevator Traveling Cable | Dual‑Core Crane & Lift Flat Cable

Engineered for Continuous Motion and High-Tensile Demands

In high-stakes industrial environments—whether vertical elevator shafts or horizontal crane systems—cable failure leads to costly downtime. The YFFB Flat Traveling Cable is engineered specifically to solve the challenges of constant bending, twisting, and mechanical stress.

Manufactured by Shanghai Rousheng Wire And Cable Co., Ltd., a specialist in high-flexibility drag chain and special cables with over 100 varieties in R&D and production, this cable combines flexibility with industrial-grade durability. Designed for the global market, it meets the rigorous demands of European and international safety standards.

Why Choose YFFB Series Flat Cables?

1. Optimized for Tight Bending Radii
Unlike traditional round cables, our flat structural design significantly reduces the bending radius. This prevents internal core twisting and knotting during high-speed operation, extending the service life of the cable in elevators and festoon systems.

2. High Tensile Strength with Steel Reinforcement
For vertical suspension heights exceeding standard limits, the YFFB series integrates dual galvanized steel wire ropes. This bears the mechanical load, protecting the copper conductors from stretching or breaking under their own weight.

3. Extreme Environment Resistance
The outer jacket utilizes a special modified rubber or high-grade PVC compound. This provides exceptional resistance to:

• Oil and Coolants: Ideal for industrial machining environments.
• Abrasion: Withstands friction in drag chains.
• Temperature Variations: Remains flexible from -30°C to +80°C.

4. Superior Conductivity
We use 99.99% Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) for the conductors. This ensures stable signal transmission and power delivery with minimal voltage drop, even over long travel distances.

Technical Specifications

Primary Applications

This cable is designed for power supply and control in systems requiring frequent reciprocating motion:

• Elevators & Lifts: Passenger and freight elevators requiring long-distance suspension.
• Cranes: Gantry cranes, overhead bridge cranes, and port machinery.
• Material Handling: Conveyor belts, telescoping doors, and automated warehousing systems.
• Festoon Systems: Power supply tracks for moving machinery.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the advantage of flat cable over round cable for elevators?
A: Flat cables dissipate heat better and stack neatly without twisting. Their geometry allows for a smaller bending radius, which reduces mechanical stress on the copper cores during constant movement, significantly extending the cable’s lifespan compared to round equivalents.

Q: Can Shanghai Rousheng customize the core count and dimensions?
A: Yes. As a dedicated R&D manufacturer, we offer full customization. Whether you need a specific number of signal cores, varying cross-sections (e.g., mixing power and signal wires), or specific outer jacket colors (Black/Orange), we can manufacture to your exact requirements with low MOQs.

Q: Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
A: The standard YFFB is designed for indoor and protected outdoor use. For harsh outdoor environments with direct UV exposure or extreme cold, please specify this in your inquiry so we can apply our UV-resistant, weather-proof outer sheath compound.

Q: Does the cable include steel wire reinforcement?
A: We offer both standard YFFB (without steel) and reinforced versions (often denoted as YFFB-G or with “dual steel wire”). For travel heights exceeding 80 meters, we strongly recommend the reinforced version to prevent tensile strain.
