Retractable Cables

Retractable cables, also known as coiled or curly cables, are a highly durable and flexible cable solution. CDC has many years of experience in designing cables in extendable lead form, bringing high quality materials, engineering and craftsmanship to every project we undertake.

Coiled cables are proven to perform in even the most challenging of environments and can be deployed for many different applications – particularly when versatility and flexibility are key considerations.
