Wire & Cable
Overhead Wire Accessories
Furukawa Electric manufactures a wide range of overhead wire accessories for both transmission and distribution, including clamps and dampers.
Primary URD Insulated Cables
Furukawa Electric manufactures underground distribution cables.
Submarine Power Cable
Furukawa Electric manufactures submarine power cables.
Superconducting Cable
Furukawa Electric is a pioneer in superconducting technology and developing high-Tc superconducting power cable (HTS cable) which will substantially reduce transmission loss compared to conventional copper or aluminum cables.
Polymer
Drykeeper
Drykeeper is an environmentally friendly, moisture-absorbing sheet formed from synthetic rubber with a super absorbent polymer. Drykeeper is a thin sheet covered in a non-woven material which takes up little room and is extremely easy to handle.
EFLEX
EFLEX is a corrugated pipe made of hard polyethylene, designed for underground cable installation. EFLEX provides a protective barrier to keep underground cables from being damaged. EFLEX is a lightweight solution (less than one third the weight of hard vinyl pipe, and one twelfth the weight of lined steel pipe).
F-CO Tape
Combining Furukawa Electric’s vast experience in both the engineering and manufacture of wire and cable as well as the engineering and manufacture of synthetic resins and electrical insulation, F-CO Tape is a self-bonding tape used for electrical insulation of high-voltage cable.
Furukawa Green Trough
Furukawa Green Trough is a covered protective trough made of recycled resin used for burying cables. Its weight is only one-quarter that of concrete troughs, enabling Furukawa Green Trough to be transported manually, reducing the installation time as well as providing ease of installation. Also, troughs made of recycled plastics are eco-friendly & offer excellent strength, flame retarding properties, & workability.
Furukawa Green Trough Vehicle Rated Lid
Furukawa Electric offers light and heavy-duty cable ducting systems. Green Trough Vehicle Rated provides outstanding H20 load rating and you can connect with FURUKAWA GREEN TROUGH series to make your own system.

Power Kicker
Many trains are equipped with a heat sink (power kicker) for cooling power transistors that control the electric voltage and frequency. With the N700 rolling stocks of the Tokaido Shinkansen lines, there are no electric fans. Instead, our ultra high-performance power kicker [PK-S] which holds the leading market share is being used. It is capable of cooling high-power transistors with the air flow generated during operation. The power kicker is also being used high-speed trains in China and other countries.
