The cable is silicone. Nowadays, the woven cotten is just retained
to stop it snagging on the cloths you are ironing, so the cable
easily slides over the cloths and the edge of the iorning board.
Oh, is that what it is for? Thanks, I had wondered.
My thought had been that it was there to fray and generally
become a mess quite quickly - so the owner had to go out and
buy a new iron...
With me, it's normally some part inside the iron which fails
before the cord. Actually, I have a couple of cords I cut off
irons when the rust was being chucked out.

Following articles can help you have a better understand of Medical grade TPU cable and Silicone cable
The performance of TPE and TPU are quite similar and cannot be distinguished by the naked eye, but they can be distinguished by some simple methods.

Cable used in Medical devices interconnection or medical accessories can be silicone cable, TPE cable or TPU cable. Of course PVC cable can also be used, but usually for disposable purpose.in some countries, in order to save healthcare expense or
environment, some medical items must be reusable, so TPU and TPE become two main medical extrusion or overmolding materials.

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is the most durable materials commonly used in medical cable extrusion, as medical cables usually need the cable to be extreme flexible and excellent resistance to different sterilization and any possible situation during
its application. Due to its remarkable properties of mechanical, abrasion and chemical resistance, which makes it suitable for harsh environment. Besides, TPU cable sheath limits the increase of bacteria and microbes, suitable particularly for
interconnection of medical apparatus and instruments.

Silicone heating wire is usually composed of metal conductors, carbon fibers, fiberglass, and an insulation layer
When you need tools and equipment to be kept at a steady, reliable, accurate temperature? In addition to fast heating speeds, even temperatures, and precise, efficient heat, silicone insulated heater wire is also resistant to outside weather conditions.
There are many ways to apply silicone heater wire to a wide range of equipment, for medical use: development tubes, bodybuilding fabrics, electric medicine pads, waistbands, and blood analyzer heaters.
You should choose silicone-insulated wires when you need a steady temperature in an area that naturally produces high, unsteady temperatures. The silicone insulation prevents connections from melting and keeps them flexible. You can customize these wires
depending on the size, shape, color, and specifications that suit your specific industry.
