UTVFLEX-SPR 0.6/1 kV Vertical Spreader Reeling Cable Alternative | TEBAOFLEX
For buyers specifying UTVFLEX-SPR 0.6/1 kV on a vertical container-crane spreader reel, this TEBAOFLEX enquiry page organizes the original model’s published size and duty data for a controlled replacement review. The catalogue figures below are reference values; the proposed TEBAOFLEX construction and ratings require an approved drawing.
- Reference service: vertical reel and spreader control/signalling cable, not a gravity basket cable.
- Reference sizes: 18G2.5 through 56G2.5, each listed discretely in Specifications.
- Reference architecture: tinned flexible copper, load-bearing aramid center, polyester anti-torsion braid and yellow halogen-free polyurethane sheath.
- Check reel geometry, suspended length, tension, twist, guide rollers and minimum mobile temperature before specifying a replacement.
Send the existing cable marking or drawing, crane model, duty profile, length and required configuration with your RFQ.
UTVFLEX-SPR reference model for a vertical spreader reel
An enquiry for UTVFLEX-SPR usually means that the crane needs more than a matching core count. Its original catalogue describes a vertically reeled signalling cable for container-handling equipment, where cable weight, suspended tension and repeated torsion act together. The source lists 0.6/1 kV and seven 2.5 mm² core counts, from 18G2.5 to 56G2.5. Those details establish the reference specification to compare; they do not establish the rating of a TEBAOFLEX proposal.
Use this page to identify the exact reference size and describe how the cable moves. A vertical spreader reel is a different mechanical duty from a gravity collection basket. For an alternative, the selected conductor layout, center support, anti-torsion layer, sheath, cable diameter and allowable pull must be checked against the reel and suspended run. The reference table gives the original nominal dimensions and loads so the comparison can start with an actual model and size instead of an approximate visual match.
- Best fit to review: vertically suspended control or signalling connections on spreader reels.
- Critical boundary: the catalogue’s −40°C mobile line has a Type K footnote; specify the required low-temperature duty explicitly.
- Provide for a quote: old marking, core schedule, reel/guide drawing, travel and drop, speed, tension, environment and required documentation.
For a TEBAOFLEX model with its own published data, compare the RXX / TRA-RF vertical reeling cable.
Construction to compare for UTVFLEX-SPR duty
Reference-model data: The values below describe the cited UTV catalogue model for specification matching. They are not a TEBAOFLEX production drawing, test result, certificate, inventory statement, or guarantee of interchangeability. A TEBAOFLEX quotation identifies the proposed construction and approved ratings.
| Layer or element | Original catalogue description | Replacement review |
|---|---|---|
| Conductors | Extra-flexible tinned copper, better than Class 5 IEC 60228 / VDE 0295 | Conductor class, strand size, resistance and termination |
| Insulation | Special compound; exact chemistry not identified | Insulation material and electrical/thermal test evidence |
| Central support | Rubber over aramid/Kevlar load element | Suspended load path and anchoring method |
| Core arrangement | Laid-up geometry intended to reduce internal torsion | Core count, lay and rotation behavior |
| Anti-twisting layer | Polyester braid between inner and outer sheaths | Torsion test and layer attachment |
| Sheaths | Yellow halogen-free polyurethane inner and outer sheaths | Actual jacket chemistry, colour and marking |

Where the UTVFLEX-SPR reference is used
The source describes vertical cable winding reels on container and harbour cranes, with simultaneous pulling and torsion. A replacement enquiry should specify the complete movement path, including the cable reel, suspended span and spreader entry.
- Vertical payout and take-up on spreader reels.
- Control and signalling between crane and moving handling equipment.
- Heavy-duty service involving abrasion, crushing exposure and cable twist, subject to the proposed product's approved limits.
A gravity basket or festoon layout needs its own cable route; it should not be selected only because the reference cable has a similar jacket or core count.

| Reference property | Original value | Selection note |
|---|---|---|
| Rated voltage U₀/U | 0.6/1 kV | Check required system voltage |
| Test voltage | 4 kV | Reference model test; request proposed cable report |
| Maximum AC voltage | 0.7/1.2 kV | Reference model |
| Maximum DC voltage | 1.8 kV | Reference model |
| Maximum conductor working temperature | 90°C | Reference model |
| Maximum short-circuit conductor temperature | 200°C | Reference model; verify fault duration and conductor size |
| Mobile / static minimum ambient | −40°C / −50°C in table | The same source says Type K is available for −40°C mobile duty; confirm variant |
