The investment in this new equipment offers customers 11 million pounds of incremental copper capacity, and supports our growth strategy.<span id="more-1850"></span>At Kalas, we believe in servicing markets and supporting the product needs of our valued partners. Our investment in the Niehoff enables us to grow in many of our markets – bare &amp; tinned copper, welding, construction, truck &amp; bus, marine and more. It also increases our manufacturing capability beyond 0.010” to include a 0.0063” ultra-flexible strand specification, which offers additional opportunities to our customers.</p>
<p>Our new multi-wire increases our operational efficiency, increases our out-put capacity, and demonstrates Kalas is willing to invest in our business &amp; community for continued growth. Our Kalas production team has done a great job getting the multi-wire operational, and we are excited for the opportunities it offers all of us.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kalas announces the launch of 125°C SGR Battery Cable; a high temperature cable that exceeds SAE J1127 requirement of 90°C SGR, and meets the requirements of UL 558 and UL 583.  Although Kalas has been a trusted manufacturer of battery cable for decades, the increased temperature operating range offers assurance our product will uphold its dimensional integrity and deliver quality performance in high temperature environments and applications.</p>
<p><span id="more-1817"></span></p>
<p>Constructed with flexible stranded copper, and a high grade RoHS compliant thermoset rubber, our new 125°C SGR offers superior abrasion characteristics; making it an excellent product for use between battery terminal &amp; starter and grounding on boats, buses, cars, lift trucks, RV’s, tractors and trucks.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>“We are truly excited to add 125°C SGR battery cable to our portfolio of products.  This product is a necessary extension to our offering, as there is a growing demand for high temperature cable for the Truck, Marine, Automotive, Agriculture, and RV markets we serve.  Kalas is committed to providing technical solutions to our valued partners, and this is just one more example of our ability to do so,” comments Dennis Melnyk, Kalas Chief Operating Officer.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although Kalas has been a trusted manufacturer of Cathodic wire for decades, the addition of the UL certification offers additional quality assurance our product construction will uphold its dimensional integrity and deliver the performance consistency the end-use environments require, and our customers deserve.</p>
<p><span id="more-1721"></span></p>
<p>Non-UL Cathodic specifications are contingent on the product design by the manufacturer. These variables include copper content, quality of insulation, wire design, diameters, and wall thickness among others. Without monitoring these critical specifications, you invite variables that can affect the product quality and ultimately, its performance.</p>
<p>UL Cathodic is closely and regularly monitored by an independent third party. Kalas is accountable to manufacturer its product to the stringent UL standards, eliminating this guesswork. “We are truly excited to offer UL Cathodic to the marketplace. It is another great extension to the Kalas portfolio of products, and offers our customers the quality-assurance they expect from us. At Kalas, we pride ourselves on our technical solutions, and UL Cathodic is yet another opportunity where we felt we could offer value to our customers,” comments David Kurtz, Vice-President of Sales and New Business Development for the wire &amp; cable division.</p>
