Hello,
A client wants to run a single #10 wire with flexible gas tubing, similar to the fill hose at a gas station. They envision something ty-rapped to the outside of the cable. The issue is that this will be outdoors in the NE so will be subject to extreme temperature plus repeated movement, flexing, and damage. I see this causing premature failure of the insulation and conductors. I've used high strand wiring for controls applications, but not sure it it'll work here.
I did some looking for high flex cabling and found products intended for robotics and other extreme applications (link). I'm looking for something in the middle. Anyone have experience with a type of cabling that will hold up to this type of application? Thanks a ton!
