Cicoil announced that its highly flexible and durable flat silicone cables are now designed for use in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) that require absolute reliability for mission critical applications. Unlike other types of cables, Cicoil notes that its product utilizes an exclusive process of encapsulating individual components in a shock absorbing silicone jacket that renders them unaffected by repeated exposure to severe vibration, extreme temperatures (-65°C to +260°C), harsh weather and the rigors of turbulent flight.

Cicoil states that each of its flex cables can incorporate a variety of elements including power conductors, shielded signal pairs, video and coax conductors, and other design elements such as the company's patented StripMount fastening strip, all in a single, compact cable design. Cables are available in continuous lengths, cut to order, or as assemblies, with connectors to custom specifications, 100% tested and inspected.
The company notes that its UL Recognized, RoHS Compliant and CE Conforming cables are manufactured in an automated, climate controlled environment, and exceed NASA 1124 outgassing specifications for space use and vacuum requirements. In addition, the company offers anti-friction coating options and custom-shaped cable designs by request. The company's quality assurance system is certified to the ISO 9001 (AS9100) standard.
