It can get quite hot on our planet. For example, the Norris Geyser Basin in Yellowstone reaches water temperatures of up to 237 degrees Celsius. And in Hawaii, lava temperatures of around 1,200 degrees Celsius have already been measured during volcanic eruptions of Kilauea or Mauna Loa.
While the temperatures mentioned above are of natural origin, the temperatures to which cables and wires are exposed in industrial environments often reach similar ranges in the environment of welding robots, inside production plants or heating elements. Here, particularly heat-resistant cables and wires are required that can fulfill their intended purpose to 100%, even under harsh and adverse conditions.
Habia/HEW-Your partner for Heat-Resitant Cables

Habia/HEW – Your partner for heat-resistant cables
Our heat-resistant cables and connection cables are mainly used in industrial environments. The most prominent areas of application include:
Machinery, plants and equipment
Wind turbines
Railway technology
Heating technology
Automotive technology
Lighting technology

The combination matters
Our silicone cables are optimized in terms of temperature resistance and can be used for applications up to 200 °C. Within dry environments, our glass fibre cables ensure temperature resistance up to 550 °C.
For higher temperatures and special requirements, HEW offers custom cable designs with high-performance materials, such as ceramic-based, that can withstand continuous temperature stresses of up to 800 °C or short-term peak temperatures of up to 1,550 °C.
By combining different materials with each other, the areas of application can be expanded. For example, glass fiber in combination with materials such as PTFE or FEP enables use in humid environments with very good dielectric strength.
In addition to the materials mentioned, HEW-KABEL's portfolio includes numerous other thermoplastic elastomers, thermoplastics and a wide range of high-grade materials.
The Optimum Material for Every Cable
The materials used in HEW cables ensure excellent performance of the high-temperature cables even under extreme working conditions.
Glass Fibre
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)
Silicone
Glass fibre offers excellent temperature resistance, high aging resistance as well as high mechanical strength.
PTFE is extremely resistant to high temperatures and chemicals, has good electrical insulating properties, excellent weathering resistance, high impact strength and anti-adhesive properties.
Silicone is halogen-free and characterized by high temperature resistance combined with permanent flexibility.
