See this comparison of destructive testing - we connected a competitor's cable (right) to our SUPERGRADE cable (left) and ran several beads of high-spatter welds along the entire length of the cable - a total of 2 minutes duration. Burst heat >1000 degrees.
SUPERGRADE survived quite well - constructed with a high-temperature 5-wire shielded FEP jacketed cable, and the overmold is completely bunkered inside the dual purpose ACTIVSTONE-coated GRIPSHIELD, which functions both as an overmold shield and as the actual nut - machined out of stainless steel with high-grip knurling - this is a Weld Dynamix feature designed to extend cable life in welding environments.
