LSFHTM is a trademark of HUBER+SUHNER. Low Smoke and Free of Halogen are characteristics of the material behaviour. LSFHTM cables are flame retardant and self-extinguishing. The LSFHTM material is a highly filled olefin copolymers (hydrocarbon-based plastics mix). Similar abbreviations are LSOH, LSZH or FRNC.
LSFHTM cables are predominantly applied in enclosed areas (tunnels, hospitals, safety environments, computer rooms etc.), where they mainly replace PVC-jacketed cables. LSFHTM cables are self-extinguishing in the event of a fire, show low smoke emissions and are 100% halogen free.
