Insulation
Okonite® insulation is a heat, moisture and chemical resistant, mechanically rugged compound. The insulation thickness for sizes #14 AWG through #9 AWG is 4/64". One conductor in each layer is identified by color coding. In addition each conductor is number coded for ease of identification.

Jackets
Individual conductors are assembled with flame and moisture resistant fillers, where needed and cable tape. The over-all Okosheath® - (CP-TS) jacket supplied with this cable has high mechanical strength, and excellent resistance to flame, ozone, oil and most chemicals.

Applications
Okonite Railroad Cables are for use in railroad signal circuits where continuity of service and long life are required in all vital circuit and safety related applications. They are designed especially for aerial applications and all wet or dry locations.
