We needed a better cable in critical areas of our control system so TPC showed us their Super-Trex® and Trex-Onics® products but TPC challenged us to try anything to cause a failure. We decided to try the most abusive thing we could think of — run the cable over with a 60,000 lb track rig. When the initial test didn’t cause a failure, we performed a 0 degree turn, pivoting directly on the cable. The only damage to the cable was the abraded outer casing. Since this experiment 3 years ago, we have been using Super-Trex® and Trex-Onics® for our mission-critical cable assemblies, without a failure.

Cold Weather
Is Your Facility Prepared For Winter?
Whether you're preparing for cold weather or that your applications are operating in a cold environment, TPC understands that having a cable that can keep up with your operations in the most extreme climates can be a competitive advantage. Our cold temperature cables can perform as low as -70°F.
