H07ZZ-F LSZH Flexible Rubber Cable: 450/750V Halogen-Free Power Cord Specifications & Guide

2026-04-15

 

 

In today's increasingly safety-conscious industrial and commercial environments, the H07ZZ-F LSZH Flexible Rubber Cable has emerged as a preferred choice for power and control applications worldwide. Rated at 450/750V, this halogen-free, low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) cable delivers exceptional flexibility, durability, and fire safety performance — making it the ideal upgrade or replacement for traditional H07RN-F rubber cables in projects where toxic smoke emission and corrosive gases pose serious risks.

Manufactured to EN 50525-3-21 (formerly HD 22.13) standards, the H07ZZ-F features class 5 stranded flexible copper conductors, LSZH cross-linked rubber insulation (EI8 type), and a robust halogen-free LSZH outer sheath. This construction ensures outstanding resistance to abrasion, impact, oils, ozone, and extreme temperatures — fixed installations from -20°C to +90°C, and flexed use from -5°C to +50°C or better in many variants.

Whether for stage lighting, mobile machinery, industrial tools, renewable energy setups, public buildings, or harsh outdoor environments, the H07ZZ-F combines mechanical toughness with critical LSZH properties to protect lives, equipment, and infrastructure during fire incidents.

1. What Is H07ZZ-F Cable?

H07ZZ-F is a harmonized European flexible rubber power cable rated at 450/750V Cable, designed for applications requiring:

  • High flexibility
  • Halogen-free, low smoke emission
  • Enhanced mechanical durability
  • Safe use indoors and outdoors

Unlike traditional rubber cables such as H07RN-F, H07ZZ-F uses LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) compounds instead of halogenated elastomers, making it suitable for modern safety-critical environments.
