ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a flexible cable assembly for reliably transmitting motion along a predetermined path in high temperature environments. The assembly comprises a flexible tubular conduit, a crosslinked polyethylene tubular liner for the conduit and a core member movably contained within the conduit for transmitting force or torque along the predetermined path. The assembly preferably exhibits a fictional efficiency of at least about 80% over 500,000 cycles of the 200.degree. F. S-test.
