Are you tired of cables that crack, stiffen up, or fail when exposed to industrial oils?
You know the struggle. You install a control cable in a machine or a wet environment. A few months later, the outer sheath gets brittle. The wires inside break because the cable couldn’t handle the movement. Or worse, chemicals and oils eat through the insulation, causing short circuits and expensive downtime.You need a wire that works as hard as you do. You need a cable that bends without breaking, resists harsh chemicals, and carries power reliably to your motors and control panels. This is not just a wire. It is a promise of stability for your industrial systems.This is the German imported 4-core 6 square millimeter sheathed flexible 4G6 control wire power cable LAPP1119604. It is the industry standard for a reason. Let’s look at why this specific cable solves your headaches.
What makes the ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 4G6 special?
This cable is not a generic piece of wire you find in a local shop. It is engineered by LAPP, a German brand famous for quality. The model number 1119604 identifies a specific build that professionals trust.The core idea here is flexibility and toughness. It uses Class 5 flexible bare copper conductors. This means the wire inside is made of many thin strands twisted together. It is not a solid, stiff rod. Because of this, you can pull it through pipes, bend it around corners, and use it in moving parts (like drag chains) without damaging the copper.The outer jacket is made of special PVC (Type TM2). This is not cheap plastic. It is formulated to resist oil, ozone, and UV light. If you use this cable outside in the sun or inside a factory with hydraulic oils, it will not crack or melt easily. It is also flame-retardant, meaning it does not spread fire if a short circuit happens.
Technical Specifications: The numbers you need to know
When you buy industrial cable, you need exact data. Here is the breakdown for the LAPP 1119604:
Core Configuration and Size
- Number of Cores: 4 (This means 3 phase/live wires + 1 ground wire).
- Conductor Size: 6 mm² (6 square millimeters).
- Conductor Material: Bare Copper (BC).
- Stranding Class: Class 5 (Very flexible).
- Core Colors: Black with white numbers (for phase 1, 2, 3) and a Green/Yellow stripe for the ground wire.
Electrical Ratings
- Voltage: Rated for 300/500 Volts (U0/U). This is the standard for control and power supply in low-voltage systems.
- Test Voltage: 4000 Volts (It is tested to handle high surges).
- Nominal Voltage Range: Some versions are rated up to 600/1000V depending on the standard, but the standard LAPP 110 is 300/500V.
Physical Dimensions
- Outer Diameter: Approximately 13.0 mm to 13.1 mm (about 0.51 inches).
- Weight: Around 289 kg to 397 kg per kilometer (depending on copper purity and sheath thickness).
- Bending Radius: 4 times the outer diameter. This means you can bend it tightly without hurting the wire.
Environmental Limits
- Temperature Range: Fixed installation: -40°C to +80°C. Flexing/Moving: -15°C to +70°C.
- Oil Resistance: Yes. It resists common industrial oils and chemicals.
- UV Resistance: Yes. It can be used outdoors or in direct sunlight.
- Fire Performance: IEC 60332-1-2 (Does not propagate flame).
Where should you use this 4G6 Flexible Cable?
You might ask, “Is this the right cable for my project?” The 4G6 size is a “heavy hitter” for control cables. It carries more current than smaller wires (like 1.5mm or 2.5mm). Here are the best places to use it:
Heavy Machinery and Motors
If you have large motors, air conditioners, water heaters, or industrial cooking equipment, this cable handles the high current. It is perfect for connecting the main power supply to the motor speed controller.
Control Panels and Automation
In a factory, you need reliable signals. Use this cable to wire sensors, temperature controllers, and PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers). The numbered cores make it easy for your electricians to connect the right wire to the right terminal.
Drag Chains and Moving Parts
Because the copper is flexible (Class 5), this cable moves smoothly. It is great for robotic arms, conveyor belts, and elevator systems where the cable bends thousands of times.
Construction and Outdoor Use
The grey PVC sheath is tough. You can bury it in the ground (direct burial) or run it along a wall outside. It handles moisture and dirt very well.
Why choose the LAPP 1119604 over cheap alternatives?
You will find cheaper cables online. But cheap cables often cut corners. They might use recycled copper that breaks easily. Their plastic sheath might smell like chemicals and crack in the cold.The ÖLFLEX® CLASSIC 110 is a “universal line” for decorators and engineers. It saves you money in the long run because you don’t have to replace it often.
- Pure Copper: High conductivity means less heat and energy loss.
- Precision Marking: The cores are numbered. This speeds up installation time. No guessing which wire is which.
- German Engineering: It meets VDE standards (German electrical engineering standards). This is a mark of high quality.
Packaging and Shipping
We know you need the cable fast and in perfect condition. The LAPP 1119604 is usually packed in strong, moisture-proof packaging. For export, we use heavy-duty drums or coils wrapped in plastic to keep moisture out during sea freight.Whether you need 10 meters for a repair or 1000 meters for a new production line, we can supply it. The grey color makes it look professional and clean in any installation.
