As electric and hybrid vehicle production ramps up, choosing high-voltage cable has become a strategic decision rather than a commodity purchase. Harness manufacturers need cable that meets demanding international standards, holds up under tightening chemical regulations, and runs cleanly through automated assembly lines. Eurotech Direct offers Coroflex high-voltage cable, engineered to deliver on all three fronts.

Coroflex High-Voltage Cable: Built to Global EV Standards

Coroflex builds its high-voltage cable to LV216 and ISO 19642 standards. The cable carries temperature ratings of T150 and T180, plus voltage classes up to 1,000 V AC and 1,500 V DC. Harness engineers can also choose copper or aluminum cores in shielded or unshielded configurations. As a result, teams can optimize for weight, cost, and thermal performance without sacrificing compliance.

Ahead of the PFAS Curve

Regulatory scrutiny of PFAS, often called “forever chemicals,” is accelerating across the EU and a growing number of U.S. states. Automotive supply chains must now document what’s in their materials well before new mandates take effect. Because Coroflex builds its cable talc-free and PFAS-free from the start, harness manufacturers sourcing from Eurotech Direct won’t need to scramble and requalify materials as regulations tighten. In short, the compliance work is already complete.

Engineered for Automated Assembly

Automation is only as reliable as the cable running through it. One property matters more than almost any other: concentricity, or how evenly the insulation wall surrounds the conductor core. When wall thickness varies around the conductor, automated strippers can’t apply consistent pressure. That inconsistency leads to nicked strands, uneven crimp pull-out force, and terminals that fail quality checks. Coroflex builds its high-voltage cable specifically for automated processing, rather than adapting cable meant for manual assembly. As a result, OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers get a dimensionally consistent cable that keeps automated lines running smoothly.

Coroflex High-Voltage Cable Innovation Beyond the Standard

Coroflex’s innovation extends well beyond baseline compliance. The Coroflex ProTect arrives factory-wrapped with Coroplast tape for abrasion protection up to class G, ready to install with no separate wrapping step needed on the line. For high-power EV platforms, Coroflex Active Cooled cable circulates coolant to pull heat away from the conductor, shrinking cable diameter by roughly a third and cutting weight by up to 60% versus uncooled designs.

Why This Matters Now

Between rising EV production volumes, tightening chemical regulations, and the push toward full harness automation, cable selection increasingly determines line efficiency and total cost of ownership — not just unit price. Eurotech Direct stocks Coroflex high-voltage cable in a wide range of cross-sections and configurations, with engineering support available to help match the right cable to your automated assembly process.
