Product Overview
Coil Cord
Aptiv Interconnect designs and manufactures coil cords, also called retractile cords, engineered for flexible, dynamic connectivity. Built to extend and retract like a spring, they reduce clutter, tangling, and tripping hazards while delivering reliable performance. For over 50 years, Aptiv coil cords have served military, medical, industrial, geophysical, aviation, portable power, and lighting applications. Using advanced manufacturing technology, we provide durable, high-quality performance you can count on. With expertise in materials, conductor design, and jacket engineering, our coil cords stretch multiple times their resting length and return to compact form. Optimized for demanding environments, they resist repeated flexing, abrasion, and environmental exposure. Aptiv coil cords support critical applications in industrial automation, robotics, medical devices, telecommunications, and aerospace & defense, ensuring dependable electrical performance every time.
Features and Benefits
- Retractile & Extendable: Unique coiled design allows for significant extension and retraction, providing dynamic reach and compact storage.
- Space-Saving: Reduces cable clutter and minimizes the physical footprint when not extended, ideal for tight spaces.
- Prevents Tangling & Tripping Hazards: The self-retracting nature keeps cables neat and out of the way, enhancing safety and organization.
- High Flex Life: Engineered to withstand millions of flex cycles without conductor breakage or signal degradation, crucial for dynamic applications.
- Durable Construction: Utilizes robust jacket materials (e.g., PUR, TPE) that offer excellent resistance to abrasion, oils, chemicals, and UV radiation.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for power, control, signal, and data transmission in moving parts of machinery, handheld devices, and portable equipment.
- Customization Options: Available in various conductor counts, wire gauges, coil lengths, jacket colors, and shielding configurations to meet specific application needs.
- Signal Integrity: Shielded versions protect sensitive signals from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI).
- Temperature Resilience: Designed to perform reliably across a range of operating temperatures.
