Tiger Stripes – Reflective
Nexans AmerCable’s reflective TigerStripes can extend cable life by reducing run-overs in low visibility situations and improve mine safetyby providing easier visual circuitidentification.
In addition to reducing run-overs, many customers now deploy our Tiger Stripes – cablebeside their pit roads to help guide their hauler drivers at night.
Bottom Line Savings
Based on increased productivity and longer cable service life, we estimate Tiger Stripes –Reflective saves our average open pit customers at least $1 million annually.

Nexans AmerCable CPE JacketsNexans AmerCable’s thermoset ChlorinatedPolyethylene jacket provides the physical performance and strength needed to resist wear, tear, abrasion and compression cuts caused by everyday mining use.
This tough, durable jacket is a proven performer in mines throughout the world. NexansAmerCable’s engineered cable constructionincludes a taped-core, integral fill and tandemextrusion of the jacket layers. Two-pass jackets,extruded in tandem, yield an inseparable bondbetween the layers. Integral filling of the cable core reduces torsion-induced damage.
