- Product Details
The GSWB cable is a galvanized steel wire braided (GSWB) armoured control cable, designed for signal transmission and control systems in industrial environments. Its construction features finely stranded copper conductors, a PVC inner bedding, and a distinctive Galvanized Steel Wire Braid (GSWB) armour, all protected by a transparent PVC outer sheath. GSWB cables are widely installed in fixed laying scenarios, including industrial automation, power stations, machine tools, and environments where cables may be exposed to bending, pressure, or moderate pulling forces.
- Strong Mechanical Protection – Galvanized steel wire braid enhances tensile strength and resists external impacts.
- Excellent Flexibility – Engineered with Class 5 flexible copper conductors and a braided armour, this cable is significantly more pliable than rigid alternatives like Steel Wire Armour (SWA).
- Durable and Corrosion –Resistant The steel braid is galvanized, meaning it is coated with a layer of zinc. This process provides excellent protection against corrosion and rust.
- Oil & Abrasion Resistance – Suitable for harsh industrial environments where durability is essential.
- Flexible Installation – Can be laid in trays, ducts, or directly fixed, supporting both indoor and outdoor use.

FAQ
What is the difference between GSWB and TCWB?
Material and purpose. TCWB (Tinned Copper) is highly conductive and used for EMI Shielding. GSWB (Galvanized Steel) has high tensile strength but low conductivity. Use GSWB for physical durability; use TCWB for signal interference protection.
Does GSWB provide any EMI shielding?
It provides limited magnetic screening (low-frequency H-field attenuation) due to the steel's permeability. However, it is not suitable for high-frequency RFI shielding. For proper electrical noise protection, you generally need a copper braid.
Is GSWB the same braid used on SY Control Cables?
Yes. SY cables (Armored Flexible Control Cables) utilize an inner GSWB layer under a transparent jacket. This gives the cable high crush resistance while maintaining enough flexibility for routing, unlike rigid steel wire armored (SWA) cables.
