Defender Launches the SLIM 5 Cable Protector

Defender, a brand of the Adam Hall Group, is launching the SLIM 5 -- a new cable protector with an ultra-flat design of just 3.5cm. Designed for event locations, industrial settings, and public areas, the SLIM 5 ensures smooth passage with little to no barriers while providing maximum stability and safety, the company says. It facilitates safe crossings and protection for pedestrians and wheelchair users, especially in areas with public traffic such as shopping centres, airports, or sporting events, and is resilient enough for large transport vehicles to drive over.

Made from heavy-duty, recyclable polyurethane, the SLIM 5 can withstand loads weighing up to five tons per 25cm by 30cm. The patented 3D LaserGrip surface improves slip resistance, while the self-cleaning hinges ensure functionality over the long term. Five large cable ducts (34mm by 20 mm) make flexible applications possible, whereas the eye-catching yellow cover with a secure locking system increases visibility, the company says, and everything is covered under a five-year guarantee. "Our new SLIM 5 offers reliable protection in all areas where a particularly flat but robust cable protector is required," explains Simon Land, product manager. "Whether at trade fairs, festivals, or in industrial environments, the SLIM 5 ensures safe passage for pedestrians, wheelchairs, and vehicles."
