Cathodic Protection Cable

The quality of the cable is instrumental to any cathodic protection system.   Cathodic protection cable must be highly corrosion resistant and capable of withstanding the rigors of the environments to which they are exposed.

MATCOR brand Cathodic Protection Cable, which is available in many different sizes as well as jacket compositions, provides the dependable results that you demand.

Our High Molecular Weight Polyethylene cable (HMWPE) is suitable for most environments.  In high chlorine generation environments however, we recommend our KYNAR/HMWPE or HALAR/HMWPE cables, which are dual extruded highly chlorine resistant power cables. See the tables below, or download our data sheet for the sizes and insulations available.
