500V MGM 101 EPDM Insulation Mining Cable

MGM 101 Cable Construction

MGM 101 Cable Application

MGM 101 cable is used to supply power from batteries to standard 4V, 1A helmet lamps. It is suitable for use in deep mines as a cable resistant to high mechanical stress, where explosive gases and dust may accumulate. Primarily used in the mining sector, but also widely employed in other heavy industries:

• Continuous mining machines
• Shuttle cars
• Longwall shearers
• Drilling rigs
• Heavy industrial machinery
• Construction sites
• Temporary power distribution systems

Why EPDM and Neoprene are Chosen for Mining

EPDM Insulation Material:

• Superior Heat Resistance: Operates stably in high-temperature environments without degradation.
• Ozone and Weather Resistance: Delivers outstanding performance under harsh atmospheric conditions.
• Electrical Stability: Maintains insulation properties across a wide temperature range.
• Flexibility: Retains soft characteristics even in low-temperature environments.

Chloroprene Rubber (CP) Sheath:

• Exceptional Durability: Highly resistant to abrasion and tearing, withstands crushing by rocks and heavy equipment.
• Oil and Chemical Resistance: Withstands exposure to oils, greases, and certain chemicals commonly found in mining environments.
• Flame Retardancy: Critical safety feature for underground mining applications, featuring self-extinguishing design.
• Weather and Moisture Resistance: Performs excellently in humid conditions.
