Braided cables

[ElPulido]

Hi All,

I need advice on where to source braided cables for use in a heat press. I'm aware there are un-braided cables the are heat resistive, so any recommendation that's feasible will do. 

Attached is an image of the current cable in use, which is broken midway - probably due to being over 15 years old and used almost every day.

Thanks in advance.

I'd use silicone instead, eg https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/233919251899  but the same vendor also offers various fibreglass etc. cables.

At work we have the fiberglass braid as a separate roll, and put PTFE insulated wire inside as needed. You can get this stuff from RS, and I think you can get it single core pre-threaded on the roll too, but minimum roll size might be pricy.. (~50m iirc)

How much do you need in length and CSA? If I've got the correct one in stock I can probably just give you a few meters.

Thanks Rowan, I ordered from eBay. figured it be easier as I only require two 90cm lengths.

Appreciate your kindness :-)
