Housing Appliance Field
We KURABE have been continuing our effort to provide products suitable for equipment such as heating, air conditioning and lighting, water supply system, studying the treands of improvement in living circumstance orising from people's needs for more amenity. Especially, it is widely used for heating systems, piping units, etc. which are excellent in safety and durability. We KURABE continue our effort to offer the better products, so that the people's life can be more and more comfortable.


Ecological Compatible Wires
The environment compatible wire products such as PVC insulated electrical wire of lead free grades ( WEISER Wires ), electric wire of PVC free grades, closslinked polyethylene Insulated wire which contained no restricted-brominechemicals in insulation material ( EAGLE Wires ), electric wire of zero halogen insulation ( SIEGER Wires, some of EAGLE Wires ) and electric wire of heavy metal free insulation is assorted. Already, these are widely used for the wiring in the equipment, and some of these are approved according to UL standard.
 
Electric wires for special application
Electric wire prepared for special application, namely for power supply and for the control to various household appliance equipment. The following are examples of wide usage : Electric wire assemblies for the toilet seat heater control, sensor lead wire for temperature control to floor heating by warm water and remote control cords, high-voltage wire for the ignition for the gas equipment, high-pull-strength power supply wire for suspension of lighting equipment, electric wire of mouse-proof / bird-proof, etc..
 
Hoses for piping
The metal fitting was installed in both terminals of the crosslinked polyethylene tube or braid reinforced flexible hose, and used in home for hot water supply. As our composite technology has enabled the unification of advantages of the materials to the maximum, it is excellent in pressureproof, thermostable and flexibility. It acquires the Japan Water works association certification. It is used for mixing water plugs, baths reheating, floor heating, etc..
 
Silicone Rubber Packings & Molded Outlet Plugs
It is the packing which have uniform, fine and independent bubble in the silicone rubber. It is widely used as sealing materials and heat insulation material for such as cold machine and drier and hot-water supply system. As it is possible to carry out the extrusion of hollow type and heteromorphic type, cushion effect and heat insulation effectiveness are obtained plus to the high thermostability which is an advantage of silicone rubber.
For assembling our wide selection of electrical cords, Kurabe produces regular outlet plugs conforming to UL and CSA. We also make such specialty products as swivel plugs and magnet plugs as well as through-cord switches and cord sets. The manufacturing of electrical cords of PVC free grades and ecological compatible grades is also possible.
 
Heaters for improvement to living conditions
Kurabe has been selling and developing cord-type heating elements for over 30 years. Our cord-type heating elements have earned a reputation for safety and wide ranging potential for use, for amenity improvement needs in living conditions. These heaters are used widely in household appliances and housing equipment such as toilet seat heater, floor heating, cloudiness prevention heater of the mirror used indoors, road heater, snowmelt heater on roof, water pipe antifreezing heater used outdoor.
 
Safe control parts
It is cord-type thermal fuse for detection of temperature anomaly with cut off function of the circuit. It accurately detects the thermal abnormality in every position at the overall length, since detection device is lineary extended unlike the conventional thermal fuse. And it rapidly cuts off the circuit, and previously prevents the fire. It is used for heat exchanger of the gas hot-water supply system, etc.
