Description
EMCA’s table of backshell cable entry codes and the spring to use with each.
Constant force springs (CFS) terminate the braided screen of a cable on the band platform of an EMCA band backshell. The spring is wound over the screen where it sits on the platform and holds it with even pressure all the way around, for a 360° screen termination.
- Five sizes: HE050, HE100, HE200, HE300 and HE400
- Matched to EMCA standard band backshell cable entry codes 03 to 24
- An alternative to banding straps on the same backshells
